Thanks Vibex for an interesting and generous giveaway :)

I nominate:

HoffmanMyster - for appearing in nearly every thread with something humourous and/or supportive to say.

Sent - for contributing to the community spirit with his blog and interviews.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Thanks for the giveaway!

I choose Azhdar because he is the only geekhacker I met IRL. He's a nice guy, he helped me a ton explaining things and letting me try his boards.

The second person is Spicebar. He's one of the first I really talked with when I arrived in this community. He gave me so many pieces of advice and was really nice to me. He took the time to explain very basic stuff when I was in confusion. I consider him a friend even though I'll probably never meet him IRL.

Hoffman: for being my dad

I also think HoffManMyster should get one to put in his beard, when he isn't shaving it. so make sure it matches the colour of it.

:P

LOL, I just saw these.  :))

Congrats to all the winners!  And huge thanks to Vibex for hosting the giveaway.  <3
