My entry worked perfectly ... bug's gone!
Our family desktop is dying so thank you to BC for the chance to drastically upgrade ... embarrassed to say we have 256MB RAM
Imagine all the cool games we could play with this rockin' HP Dragon! And Grinler, we'd be more than happy to have you optimize it. This will be my only entry cuz' I'm so glad I found BC to fix my virus problem last month and educate me. Good luck ALL ... just 2 more days. YAY!

Actually that's a good thing I think. If you have been following up all the sites in the contest, on one of the sites (GEEK). The winner did not respond to claim the entry. He did just before the 72 hours limit, lol. If the address is already present, such issue won't arise at least. err or may be they still want an email from us in reply. lol Dunno.
Umm, do we have a time when an entry will be selected and announced?

Nope. You have to bare in mind that this is by US time. Which is currently:

Thanks, Yourhighness

I thought they immediately ended on the day. Not after the 24 hours for the day was over

But on the
Contests page I see no active contests. Or is the picking of a winner going to take 24 hours? >_< To find out at school or not find out at school...

I guess grinler mentioned that he will also post the winner name in forum and front page. So probably winner is not chosen yet.
