**Chris Leckness** · 04-23-07, 09:19 PM

I have shiny new retail versions of both Windows Vista Ultimate and Office Ultimate 2007 to unload. This is good news for you! I don't need them, so I am giving them to you!

What's up for grabs?
(1) Retail Copy of Windows Vista Ultimate
(1) Retail Copy of Office Ultimate 2007

How do I win?
These are nice, so I am gonna ask for a little work from you all.

Submit a set of FAQs or a Tutorial to our new Article Database. Once the deadline comes, I will review the entries and pick 10 from each (FAQ and Tutorial) and put those up for a public vote for a week. The person with the most votes in each category win. To determine who gets which item, we will go with the winner that got the most votes.

The Deadline
May 22nd, 2007

Read on to the next post for the rules...

The Rules

Any member of Aximsite or Mobilitysite can win. If you are a member of Mobilitysite and not yet registered here before, please use the same username as on Mobilitysite. Thanks. Since this is going to vote, staff members are eligible as well.
The work you submit should not be someone elses work. Tutorials or FAQs can include info that is found in the forums, but just don't lift someone elses work.
The info does not have to pertain just to a Dell Axim or Pocket PC. For instance, you can write a tutorial on how to hard reset your Palm Treo 750.
More rules will be added later as they become relavent, but these will get you started.
To be qualified, you must submit a resource and then post in this thread stating this. Once the article is live, you can also add a link.
For FAQs, I am looking for a related collection of 4-10 items in one article. Something like this : http://www.aximsite.com/articles/link.php?id=209

Info about adding your resource and entry.

Go to the Article Database (which by the way is almost competed and ready to take the load).

Find the Add Article Button:

Make sure to select the proper category, should be only Tutorials or FAQs posted.

Make your title, and the rest is like using a word processor!!!

Once the article is submitted, you it will be sent to me for approval and will not be viewable by the public until I approve it.

Thanks to Microsoft for donating the loot.

Have fun and good luck!

Anyone who wants a Ubuntu or Fedora CD can PM me, I'll even pay for the postage. I wouldn't take a Vista CD even if it were free.

I'm not sure if you have an article on this already, but I have a feeling that there are many PDA users who might be worried about cross-platform data transfer between Palm OS and Windows Mobile, particularly in the PIM department.

I've done some testing myself, and while I haven't really put it down in writing yet, I think it would make a great informative piece for those that meet with others that use the other OS on their mobile device(s).

I'm going to rectify the "haven't put it down in writing" part right now, though, and submit an article that will hopefully nab me a free copy of Vista Ultimate and/or Office Ultimate. Given their high price, winning them would allow me to devote more of my new PC budget towards better hardware, which means higher framerates and less time between upgrades!

But, in the likely event that I don't win anything, I should at least be proud for offering some useful information to the pocket computer community...after all, I'm pretty sure that there are many Palm OS users who meet with Windows Mobile users whom they wish to exchange data with, and vice versa.

Well, I used to be addicted, but now I just pop into this site once or twice a month. I moved, changed jobs and houses, watched Season 1 of 24 on DVD, tried to catch up with old friends, just got :new_sleep with my Axim because it wouldn't give me all that I wanted, even though it was faithful for what I really needed...

Now, I'm not going to enter this one. It will take thinking and work. But, I welcome all the efforts and hope lots of people try. We'll enjoy the FAQ's and the winner will win a plum of a gift. Even if we don't want to support M$ 's newest venture, the truth is, that is the way the future goes. So, get to it friends. Start thinking and writing.

Great job, again,:approve: Chris.
