Holiday Giveaway: Win 1.5 TB of backing-up goodness!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU, THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[UPDATE: OK, we’re going to open this up to all our readers world-wide. Thanks to all our international readers for being so annoying. – The Doc]

This time of year, one’s thoughts naturally turn towards giving thanks for all the blessings in one’s lives, and there can be no doubt that Macenstein is truly the biggest blessing of all. To that end, we, in conjunction with the good folks over at Seagate, have come up with a way that you can not only win some kick ass drives for all your Time Machine backup needs, but kiss our ass at the same time!

Seagate was nice enough to give us both a FreeAgent Desk for Mac 1TB drive and a 500GB FreeAgent Go for Mac portable drive to give away to one lucky reader (that’s right, you get BOTH). All you have to do is leave a comment below telling us why you are thankful for Macenstein. We will pick a winner at random from all comments. One entry per person please. Open to all readers world-wide. Contest ends on 12/6 at 11:59 PT. Good luck!

Oh, and fear not, if you’d like an extra chance (or 9) to win, you can also enter to win one of the nine hard drive bundles at these Web sites once they post their rules:

2. CrunchGear
3.Bleeping Computer
4. GottaBeMobile.com
5. GeeksToGo.com

    Well,

    I am thankfull to the site MacEinstein because….:

    – I Love The MacChick of the Month part of the site: these real hoot girls could make me realize every single time, how nice a Hoot girl combined with a ,,Hoot stuff: aka Apple Macintosh) could be….

    – I like the celebrity spot parts as well…(chicks again) Its good to see nearly everyone using a iPhone overseas (LoL I’m living in Madrid, but Here We have many users as well…although the iPhone costs quiet much here without a contract 🙁 around: 800€ or so )

    – And I always can check what is going on in the Mac World, or whats the newest issues all around….

    So I think thats all why I like MacEinstein.COM

    V.i.k.t..o.r

  44. Michael (Alias for James B.) says:

    I am so thankful for Macenstein, it helps me live the life of international intrigue and danger I so crave. A man of my stature must be seen and escorted by beautiful women who are accessorized with just the right Apple jewelry.
    Keeping abreast of the latest technology is a must for a man faced with danger at every turn. Having just the right tool and the knowledge of how to use it has pulled me out of many a tight spot.
    Thank you Macenstein for being shaken and not stirred!

  49. thankful says:

    I am thankful for Dr. Macenstein because he is willing to report all the news that every one else is afraid to report. I enjoy the celebrity Mac chic sightings and all the other articles from ipods/Apple logos on apples to “WooHoo is free today.”

    I really enjoy your sense of humor and your strong opinions. You seem to put your feelings into this site a lot more than the other Mac sites that I read.

    Thank you

  50. I am thankful to Macenstein for hosting this contest, that I am going to win.
    Why, I am honest!
