Window’s Vista has launched, and now it’s time for our giveaway of Windows Vista Ultimate and Office 2007 Professional!

Here’s your chance to get your hands on the latest software from Microsoft. We all know that neither Office or Vista come at a cheap price, so here’s your chance to get it for free!

We’re playing a game… I’m thinking of a number. I’m thinking of a number that’s between 1 and 5000 (one and five-thousand).  Your job is to think of the number that I’m thinking of. We’ve already selected the number, and we’ve used a special calculation to get to that number.  It’s not a calculation that’s very obvious, so don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.  It would probably be best if you pick a random number :)

The person who comes closest to, or selects the number that we’ve pre-determined will get their choice of either Windows Vista Ultimate or Office 2007 Professional. After the first person has selected their software of choice, we will select the runner-up who will receive either Vista or Office, depending on what the first place winner chose. In the instance that there is a tie, the person who submitted their comment first will win.

Rules:

  1. This giveaway is open to our global audience.
  2. You may only enter one time. If you enter more than once, you will be disqualified.
  3. Void where prohibited.

Prizes will be shipped directly from Microsoft around the middle of February.

Enter your submission in the comments below.  Remember that your number must be between 1 and 5000, and you may only enter once. The contest begins immediately, and will end Friday, February 2, 2007 at 12:00pm Central Time. Be sure to include your email address in the email field of the comment, otherwise we won’t be able to contact you, should you be the winner.

Oh, and if you’re wondering what Vista is all about, check-out our review!
