    Oh, God, YES YES YES!!!

    I made the mistake of letting my 50 year old friend put together a computer for me when my Dell died. It crashes damn near nightly. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I am desperate for a new workstation!!

    I would use this for gobs of reasons -- standard productivity and game play, but I would also learn Android and make kick-butt apps. But first, I would use its powerful Google engine to come up with ideas for kick-butt apps! I might even focus on the lacking game selection and provide something decent for free!

    Is it creative? Maybe not for some, but for me, yes!!! I'm not a programmer!

    I would use it as a new development workstation for future builds of GasBot and a few other apps I plan to bring to the Android Market. I definitely need a bump in power as I've been having to use my web server as a development server as well. Can't keep doing that though!

    I don't recall ever seeing any winner announced in the forum thread. I know I wasn't notified, so I wonder who did pocket that sweet machine???
