UPDATED: Congrats to Stacy for winning the giveaway.
I had a boring corporate laptop until I got an awesome "skin" for my computer. Not only is it pretty, but the skin also fights scratches. Now my laptop doesn't show all the abuse I force it to endure.
One reader will get their own laptop skin in Electric Lily (the same one I have on my laptop) for free. We can be laptop BFFs!
Size: 15" laptop or larger
Estimated Value: $24.99

Your "laptop BFF" comment is hilarious! If the skin was anything but a flower, I'd be interested. (Sorry, I'm a guy.) Still, I had to comment.
Where do I find my laptop BFF with a "Tool band" skin? :-)

I wanna be your laptop BFF - please pick me. How do I stand out? How do I not? Rambling on about my kids and needing a martini in the same sentence at 10 in the morning - does that count? My curly hair in a sea of straight? But my laptop is extremeley boring I must say.

I'd love to spruce up my laptop a bit with this! How awesome. And I stand out by being myself! I'm eccentric and unique and that alone makes me one of a kind!

I'd love new skin :)
I wear Levi's jeans (i'm trying to start a trend) 'cause they're really well made and fit well- just like moms :)

I try to let my personality show through regardless of the situation I'm in. I use humor to get people to relax and laugh and open up. It doesn't always work, some people think I'm weird, but I just try to be myself, regardless of what others think.

I have an instant head turner: I tell people I knit and spin my own yarn. They usually freak out because loads of people think that knitting was a dying art and that spinning had been dead and buried since Edison invented the light bulb. I definitely think that's how I set myself apart.

To an average person that sees me on the street and doesn't know me from marshmallows to mountains, I have to be honest I probably don't stand out. But to loved ones in my life, especially my husband and kids, I am the shining beacon (please don't misinterpret me as being cocky, just striving to be a good wife and mother)! I try to give as much of myself as possible and try daily to let each individual know how special they are and how much I love them, sometimes to the point that I neglect myself, which stems back to me probably appearing more than a little ordinary!

HP's latest personal workstation series, the xw6400, is aimed at mid-range business users and, housed in a new mini-tower case, it's ideal where desk space is at a premium yet a system with plenty of grunt is still required.
It looks quite smart in its grey and metallic silver finish and, measuring just 441 x 165 x 440mm, the case has been designed to fit in a rack as well as on or under a desk, and its tool-free design should delight most IT managers.
With such a small case, compromises have to be made and in this instance one compromise is the number of drives you can fit into the xw6400. As standard there are two internal 3.5-inch drive bays plus a third with external access, while there are just two 5.25-inch bays.
Our review sample came with both internal drive bays filled by 500GB Seagate hard drives, to give a terabyte of internal storage, so there is an argument to say that should be sufficient; but if not, HP offers 750GB drives as an alternative. An LG, 16x, Lightscribe, multi-format DVD burner filled one of the two larger bays.
