My laptop is dying a slow death! Help me!
Friday, the 29th is my birthday. As of today, I’m expecting no presents. :-( This would be a birthday miracle.
Because it’d be awesome!
Because I would love to own one!
I would love a Netbook! My laptop has lived with me nearly ten years but is not willing to work much longer, and I take great care of my electronics. PDX Pipeline is amazing!
Old laptop is slowly coming apart and will not connect to networks anymore. Winning a new one would fix this problem :)
I need a new netbook so I can tweet and share PDX Pipeline more! Plus my laptop is dying a slow death – not good for someone who spends all day everyday online!
I would like to win because I need a new laptop. Furthermore, to win one in honor of the Blazers would be my honor!! Viva la Rip City!!
Winning!!!
Yesterday I bought an Apple iPad off Craigslist. But later found out it was an Apple Newton.
I have never used an app. I don’t know what I’m missing, right? Are these things really useful? I wanna find out. Help me Pipeline!
Pick me and I will stop pestering you.
why I want to win a netbook? because mine is broken and i m gonna need something to do when there’s no hoops this year!
I like Intel
I believe! Rip City!
Street jam is going to rock. See you there.
I want to give the netbook to my sweetie, because his laptop (which he bought about a year ago) has been broken for some time. He tried to fix it by using a USB keyboard and mouse, and that worked for a while, but defeats the purpose of having a laptop. He needs to be portable! This netbook would solve all his problems as neither of us can afford to replace his computer. Thanks!
I would love to win so that I can spread the word of the awesomeness that is PDX!
I would love to win so I could surprise my mom with it for her 70th b-day.
I would love to win this so I could bop around PDX and do all my work in exciting new places.
I’d love to win because computers are awesome and I’d like a new one.
My friend Carri is in desperate need of a netbook. She just moved out of a communal house and in with an older woman, who has no internetz or computer. She really needs to get a job and the hour allotment at the library just isn’t cutting it. It would mean so much, to someone who’s never had a computer, so plz let me win so I can help a recently-relocated friend. Thanks!
Pick me please. My ‘puter is dying and I can’t afford another one.
I would like a netbook because my boyfriend of 2 years just dumped me.
Id like to win this cause I wouldnt be able to get one otherwise. I pay current and back child support and health insurance for my son and on top of that my ex has disappeared with him and I havnt seen him in months. Oh and the only internet I have is on my dumb phone.
it would be a outstanding replacement to my current laptop that is missing the “A” & the ? mark key. Thank you for your consideration.
Because I’m Bi-winning and I drink TIGER BLOOD!
Winning a netbook would be amazing because mine died last week and I am currently posting this from a borrowed piece of crap…I mean generously loaned computer :)
Because checking game stats on the cell phone is maddening.
If I win, I will use my netbook to post cat pictures all day. Because the world needs more cat pictures.
Me pleeze… ’cause I’d like to eventually win something!
Went to this last year when it was a hundred degrees and saw a white guy win the 3-pt tournament. These things are rare in Portland. Hook me up again please!
I am strating grad school for social work in the fall at PSU and a brand spankin new netbook would be a great way for my broke ass to start school!
Yes please.
I’d love to win because a) I’ve never won through Pipeline before b) I’d love a new laptop – working for a nonprofit hasn’t given me much in terms of saving up for a new one!
Rip city!
My laptop was stolen.
I would love to win! This would be HUGE for me! Please pick my long, lovely, exotic name!
Sounds very cool!
Because I love gadgets!
This would be super-cool to win! I promise I would only use it for good – and not to take over the world!!! Really.
yes please–I’m tired of fighting my 3 teens for time on the laptop!
I would love to win the intel netbook so I can watch my nba leauge pass on the road while I’m traveling. Go blazers!
I would like to win because I am a huge blazers fan and also a big fan of the Internet. I would totally cartwheel around the block if I won.
Looks like a fun time on a beautiful summer weeekend in P-town. The netbook would be a sweet little cherry on top!
Pick me and I will give it to my boyfriend so he can get out of the house and surf the internet. I need some me time!
I want to enter so I can IM my friends while watching the Blazers BEAT their teams!
The Trailblazers won their only NBA championship on the same day that I graduated from high school. So, I’ve been waiting for a loooong time for a repeat, and it’s not only me that’s getting old – my laptop is too.
I would really like to win a Netbook to bring me into the 21st Century. I’m one of the only people I know without a smart phone and this would at least help. Thanks!
Being unemployed for the past year, I need one to keep looking for a job. Plus I volunteer a ton so I don’t just sit at home all day.
my computer doesn’t like the wine I spilled on it as much as I did
Please…..Purdy Please. :-)
My spouse needs a new computer, and winning one would be awesome, but I like Katie’s response located just above this one.
I have lived in Portland for 7 years and have been to 1 Blazers event… and had as many computers. Both of these things need to change.
I want to win because I am doing this from my phone and would very much enjoy an actual laptop/netbook. It would help me out SO much!
I would love a netbook because it would help me play basketball better.
I’m a freelance transcriber for deaf high school students, and carrying a netbook through the halls would be a vast improvement [on my back] over schlepping around an 8-pound laptop from 2004. Thanks, Intel’s AppUp and PDX Pipeline!
I’m arrogant and boorish and less deserving than anybody else commenting here but I will defenestrate my bad ways if my name gets drawn.
I would love to win this notebook since my laptop died and I’m currently borrowing my friends until I can afford to buy one (which will be a while). Winning it would be awesome!
Winning this notebook would be great! As a volunteer referee for the street jam for the fourth year running, this would be a nice perk :)
I never win anything so I don’t know why I bother, but here I go again. Hope springs eternal…!
Would so love to have this. I have never had a new computer, only old dinosaurs. This would be awesome.
Would make commuting the best. And uhh I like the Trailblazers!
I’m heading to Chile and Argentina in December and I’d love a netbook so I can keep in contact with my family and friends. A netbook would also be great so I can research places to visit, hostels, restaurants, etc., while I’m down there.
It would be so nice to have one.
Would love to have a small laptop!
I always wounded what it would be to have a notebook. I will likely head over there to check out the event, looks fun.
love to win!
Netbook. Netbook, netbook, netbook. Netbook, netbook,netbook, netbook, netbook. Netbook, netbook, netbook, Netbook, netbook,netbook, netbook, netbook. netbook, netbook, netbook. Did I mention netbook. Netbook is good. Netbook is sane. Bow down to the ever lovin’ netbook. I would if I had one.
NBA jams all summer long!
Go blazers! I love my team! A net-book would be awesome mine does not charge anymore =(
Yeah, carrying books is such a drag. Turning pages….waaayyyy too much work. My stubby fingers could benefit from a netbook.
IN IT TO WIN IT!
IN IT TO WIN IT! Thanks Pipeline! And my reason… my computer is broken! :)
Because this would be the best EVER!!!!!
Well, My daughter is moving away from home for the first time ever, I would LOVE to give her this so she can stay connected to me… it would so make me less sad :(>>>>
I would like to have one because it would fill a big, big, big hole in my life because I don’t have one yet. (insert snickering here) : )
this would make my year….
this would such a help for school
gosh oh golly gee this would be a happy…
I cannot express how much my son needs this for his online studies.
My 10 year old daughter is entering 5th grade, and could REALLY use a netbook to help her to advance in her studies!
I love the Blazers, I put a ton of miles on my computer, and I could use a new one!
A net-book has been on my wish list for at least 4 years. Though everytime I get close to saving up the money, another expense comes along! If I won one, I’d be on top of my game… a superb specimen of the species… a gal that can cut the mustard!
I would be overjoyed to win because I have never had a laptop. I’m disabled, and have had no income for the last year so I haven’t beena position to get one for myself. I would be able to research doctors, hospitals, an insurance plan, disability benefits, a caregiver, medications and of course it would be used for entertainment too! I could make friends and use online support groups. I could use it to help make major improvements in my health, financial status and relationships. Thank you for this opportunity.
I would love to win! I’d very appreciate the advanatge my first laptop would give me. I have spent most of my life and income taking care of my disabled daughter, as a single mother. I work in Corrections as a counselor. I believe I could be of better service to myself and the people I help, if I had a personal computer. It would give me a way to track my research, keep financial matters updated securely or access news & entertainment. I thank you for considering my entry.
two years ago i was visiting friends in austin and someone left a packet of border sauce on my laptop keyboard. about a month later, i started to notice that signature taco bell smell every time i turned the computer on. i took apart my computer piece by piece and cleaned off all the border sauce i could reach, but my hard drive and wireless port were welded directly to the motherboard, and coincidentally happen to be loaded with zesty border flavor. needless to say, i haven’t had a computer since then and would love to have one now.
I would LOVE to win a netbook because I am broke and over-extended and I’ve been a very good boy!
I’d like the netbook because I’ve lived off the grid for about five years. I’ve never texted or owned an i-phone, have no laptop since I gave my broken one away in 2007, have no cell phone, no cabe/t.v., on and on….the only reason I ever signed up for Facebook was because I heard employers want to see it for hiring purposes, and same goes for linked in, and I’m under a false name on one, and false pretenses on another…..so a netbook would bring me up to the present tense…..so what is it lol…..it’s a little laptop right?
Reasons I NEED a netbook!
1: you are giving one away
2: apparently, i wont have to pay for it at all.
3: maybe i would be more into the Blazers if i had one (or they started being awesome)
4: More techno junk means more happiness! right?
5: It will make me look so much cooler with a tiny little computer, like those japanese kids that are walking out of A&F downtown.
6: I made a list! I MADE a freaking list!
I’m tired of being tied to my desktop!!
Blazers are number one!!!!! I would love a Netbook and also i see you give away tickets i would be just as happy take my boy to his first Blazer game!
