“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 17

[Thank you, we have a winner. This contest is now closed. Congratulation to faithful Macenstein reader Brett!]
On the Seventeenth Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) Your very own copy of DiskWarrior 4 by Alsoft!

diskwarrior 4 by alsoft

Yes, the mighty DiskWarrior 4, the safest, most technologically advanced, most powerful utility to eliminate directory damage available for any computer, and, the only product, hardware or software, that has ever earned the highly sought after 10 out of 10 rating from Macenstein. Why? Because it rescued my entire 60 GB music collection when I had a drive go kablooey on me and other disk repair utilities failed.

The key to DiskWarrior’s success is that it is not a disk repair program in the conventional sense. Instead of patching the original directory, it uses a patent-pending technology to quickly build a new replacement directory using data recovered from the original directory, thereby recovering files, folders and documents that you thought were lost and that no other program could recover.

Those of you who have had disk trouble and who have written to me in desperation know DiskWarrior is my go-to answer, so if you do not own it already, and don’t win it here, go buy a copy. You’ll be glad you did.

To enter: Since DiskWarrior is the weapon of choice when fighting damaged disks, leave us a comment with the coolest imaginary weapon in TV/Film/videogame history. It could be the Death Star from Star Wars, The Sword of Omens from Thundercats, or Sticky Grenades from Halo 3 (but we all know it is the Glave from the movie Krull). Winners will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!

    It may be cliche at this point, but I have to go with lightsaber here. Becuase to be cool, a weapon has to be something that *I* could have fun using. And how fun is it to hit a button and fire the Death Star laser?

    I always preferred the silver shamrocks costume masks from Halloween III (Season of the Witch). With the microchip created from pieces of stonehenge, a special TV signal exploded the wearers’ heads and turned their brains into mush and icky bugs. good times for all. Yes, stupid movie, but great ad soundtrack for the masks…

    The light saber. It does everything from dispatching siths to opening cans. By the way, I’ve been using DiskWarrior for about a year and it’s a great utility. I run it periodically on my Macs to make sure to keep things running smoothly.
