Need a Tech Makeover? sponsored by Intel®

Do you need a tech makeover?

Is there someone in your life insisting that fine technology, like fine cheese, only improves with age? Are you carrying a cell phone the size of a brick or trying to surf the net on a computer that fills an entire room? Does your mom or dad print e-mails and reply by phone? Is your best friend the only person you know who still listens to cassettes on a boom box or watches movies on a Betamax? Do you need a tech makeover? Does someone you know need one?

Intel invites you to submit your story or nominate someone you love for the chance to win a $5000 tech makeover and training from the experts at Hot Hardware!

To enter, register here and upload photos or video of the tech travesty in your life. Tell us:

• What do you (or the nominee) want to be able to do with technology that you can’t do now?
• Where do you want to be able to use your computer, and why?
• Why do you want to take your personal technology to the next level?

Entries will be voted on by the community (including you!), and considered by our “ceWebrity” judges:

• Maggie Mason of Mighty Girl, Mighty Haus, Mighty Goods, and Mighty Junior
• Liz Gumbinner and Kristen Chase of CoolMomPicks
• Stacey Boyd of Savvy Source
• Natalie Zee Drieu of Craftzine
• And our resident tech experts, David Altavilla and Marco Chiappetta from Hot Hardware

Entries must be submitted by September 8th, and the winners will be announced in early October.

It’s time to come into the twenty-first century, and Intel wants to help make it happen. Tell us your story today!
