I'd love to win this awesome setup because my crappy mumble-mumble years old PC has seen its best days and is now staggering toward not just obsolescence but sheer oblivion. The two monitors would allow me to multi-task with the best of 'em. I have no tv or stereo, so I could watch video and listen to music all while being somewhat productive! Win-win!

I would love to win this for my whole family. I can say, that with my being on the computer for many reasons and my daughters for their school work and papers they have to do for school, that this computer will get plenty of use.

My twitter id is lloydviente and I believe I deserve the Lenovo package because as a graphics designer, I do all my work on computers, so it's important that my system is fast. Unfortunately work has been hard to come by, so I cope with an aging computer--winning would be the boost I need to be more productive.

My twitter ID is kasexton. I am most deserving because I want to win this not for me but for my husband. He is a full time IT student and the computer we are currently using is pieced together from various outdated computers that were either given to him for parts or he found by dumpsters that had parts or wires he could salvage. He needs this so he can have a up to date computer to use for studying with since they are teaching him all the newest tech info it would make sense for him to at least have one thing that is a new tech device. With him in school and with 2 kids we just dont have the money to buy a new computer. He loves to go to Best Buy and look at all the new computers and devices that are out and fantasize about them , but that is all they can be right now is a fantasy. We will be celebrating our anniversary at the end of July and I could not think of a better gift for me to give him than a new computer to start out the Fall semester with to show him my appreciation for him and to show him how proud we are of him.

Any given program, when running, is obsolete. Any given computer when being used is obsolete. If this is the case then my computer is hurtling backwards in time to the Paleozoic period when the world was a gaseous ball and dinosaurs ruled without equals.

I would love for a chance to win this setup as then I can give my aging pc to my son and enjoy the 2 monitor setup and modern computer for myself. I work from home often, so it sure would be nice to be more productive with 2 screens rather than one! With the increased speed, I'm sure my productivity will increase as well. And my kid will be happy to have a computer all to himself...though of course with some major parental control settings! ;)

I tweeted here http://twitter.com/ActiveWin/status/17331103757. I'm back in school now that my kids are grown, loving it and doing great, but am working with an antiquated system that could definitely stand to be replaced with a fine, spanking new bells-and-whistles system like this Lenovo. Thanks for the chance to win it!

My Twitter id is chadbushey. I could really use a new pc. This one is seven years old and slowly failing. I am a student in college studying the IT field. It would be nice to have a pc that has hardware virtualization and more than one processor for the virtual computers that we have to run for our schoolwork. Currently I am unemployed with no unemployment compensation and going back to school to better myself so I can get a job. I could really use a break from life and winning this competition would really do that for me. Thanks.

I'd love to be able to work at home, but my old computer and lovely 17" LCD monitor is very restrictive. I'm spoiled at work with a dual-screen setup so I commute in every day. Having this rig at home would allow me to commute less and spend more time with the family. That and MW2 would totally rock. Daddy can't work all the time. I think my son might just be ready to start training in the grand arts of gaming. I have to admit I was shocked when you mentioned that it came with PS/2 ports, seriously? And to think I just donated my old PS/2 keyboard and mouse three years ago. I should have held onto them.

My twitter id is TalkingColleen.
Why would I like to win? Well, my laptop is about 9 years old, my desktop is 7. I spend way too much time dealing with issues and conflicts due to the age of the machines and the slow response time that they have. And, well, heck, it's my birthday this weekend...the Lenovo would be a great (and very appreciated) gift!
Oh to be able to multi-task with those two monitors...heaven!

Twitter acc: @spenserwastaken
The reason I would like (deserve sounds like I'm entitled to it, or a brat) to win this computer is that I am losing my current laptop tomorrow (somewhat long story) due to switching colleges. Leaving me without one. The problem is I don't and for a while won't have the funds to buy/build/steal a new one.
-Good luck to everyone, just hope my luck is better

My twitter id is sharp_styles. link is here http://twitter.com/sharp_styles
Why I would like to win is because I have had the same computer for 6 years now, and right now I need a new computer. Not being able to afford a new one, and business and my computer being slow, I am entering this contest. With this computer set up, I could work on my website coding projects, and at the same time manage my communities. It is very hard to do all this work on a bad computer, and I want to win this bad.

I am most deserving to win because I'm not trying to win for myself. I would like to win this for my brother. He's a college student, and his computer crashed right after this semester. My dad is disabled and with the mounting medical & college bills, my parents cannot afford to buy him another computer. He commutes to an inner city college via public transportation and staying late to use their computers isn't the safest option. Winning this would be a blessing.

I would love to replace my old clunker. It's basically capable of writing emails and that's about it. This was fine for several years because I live in Amish country and only had dial up available to me. I couldn't play games, download music or movies, so I was OK with it's limited capabilities. Well, 6 months ago they brought DSL out to my area and a whole new world has opened - but I've only gotten a small glimpse of it because my PC just can't handle the awesomeness. I would love to upgrade and this system would be perfect to do so. Thanks so much for the chance!

my twitter ID is ajpockiiee
I should win because I don' thave a desktop computer - I'm writing this comment from a small 12" netbook. Sure, it's convenient to take with me on the road, but really limiting, but the screen size is really small. In fact I have trouble surfing more graphic intensive sites and sometimes they just plain don't work for a screen this size. I saw the double screen on the Dual ThinkVision 22" L2250p Monitors and thought- wow, now THAT would be a great change. I also like the fact that it's GREENGUARD certified. Every little bit that helps the environment makes a difference, and Levono has taken the initiative here. Not mention that it's so much faster than my little netbook! If I won I could use my current computer for the road, but be able to stop squinting and work in style from home.

Why would I like to win? Well, my wife totalled our Suburban 4 days before vacation, and we had to pack both of us and our 3 children into a Toyota Corolla for a Delaware-Florida trip. Talk about cramped. Now we have to buy another vehicle, which means any potential upgrade is well into the future for me at this point.
Also, as a computer security & compliance officer for my company, I like to keep my Twitter followers and Facebook friends up to date on security issues, threats, and the like, and a nice new system would make doing that much more pleasant!

kenziesmum2009 follows you on twitter and tweeted http://twitter.com/ActiveWin/status/17334506887
And I would love to win this system because right now I have a teeny tiny desk that is holding my monitor and I have to circulate between 3 different hard drives depending on what information I need. The internet sucks on all of them and the hard drives themselves are basically fried. My fingers are crossed!!!

I am following you on Twitter @dadofdivas and tweeted - http://twitter.com/dadofdivas/status/17512244854
For me, I would love to win this computer as just recently my computer died and at this point I am running my blog and business on both borrowed computers and borrowed time. I also love the dual screen feature and the idea of starting new with a clean slate that is not all cluttered with programs that you don't need or a seccurity system that is way too out of date. Please bring me out of the stone age of technology!

I'd like to win this because we have a 4 year old desktop and it is incredibly slow. This year my oldest daughter is starting community college and my middle child is starting high school, so we need more computing power.

Last year, we had our laptop stolen just a couple blocks from our house (my husband had just come off the bus from work when he was attacked), so we would greatly appreciate it!

My computer has started to show it's age. When the sounds it makes at startup are only a few decibels below a vuvuzela it's probably time to get a new rig.

Don't know if it makes me the most deserving or not, but I need this because my old Dell is near death. It takes forever to open aps and Photoshop barely runs now. And my laptop has some wires poking out the side and the 't' sticks. 'nuff said.

I'd love to win this (tweeting as @jdnorthwest). I have two kids (3 & 5) and I'm planning to start shooting HD video of them, just bought a nice Canon HD cam, but I don't have a system to edit the video. This I think might be perfect system. Now if only I owned it. :)

Spend all day working at a computer with a single monitor, sometimes working while watching a movie in a small 3 inch box at the bottom right of the screen. Wouldn't get any work done with a movie on the right desktop at 22"... thanks activewin for my entrepreneurial future failure...

My son was accepted into the High Honors program at his High School, and having such a wonderfully fast and new computer would be such an asset for him, as far as projects and homework. As for me, I'd love to win for the two of us! My computer is as old as Methuselah, I'd probably do better with two coffee cans and a string. Thanks for the chance to win.

My twitter ID is sunnyleemax. Here is my retweet: http://twitter.com/ActiveWin/status/17334506887
Hi there. I really need this computer to help make my life as a college student easier. Right now I am using a desktop that I bought eight years ago because my newest one was stolen while I was walking back to my apartment one night. Unfortunately, I can afford a new one because money is very tight for me right now. So I have no choice but to use an old system that lags after one hour of use. This is driving me a bit crazy. To make sure that I don't go crazy, I prefer to use the computer at the school library. That means a lot of the time, I have to stay overnight at the library to finish my projects. So as you can see, winning this computer would be a godsend to me.

I'm soon moving to New York, to begin a PhD program in Biomedical Sciences. I'm also getting married, and that means two people in a small, small space (it's going to be wonderful, but certainly cramped). Neither of us owns a desktop computer at the moment, instead we have rapidly aging laptops. With a solid, powerful, quiet desktop like this one, and two new iPads (on the wedding registry, fingers crossed) we'd be absolutely set to be connected at school, and have a powerful machine for more computer-intensive tasks (and Hulu watching, on those massive screens). This computer would make an already exciting couple of months exponentially more awesome!

I don't know, I think I would just go crazy with the dual monitor. I've never seen something this amazing before. My computer is fairly old as well and I do enjoy watching videos with my monitor.

Hello Guys!
My name is Patrick Kennedy and I am an incoming freshman to Kent State University this fall. I need this computer so bad because even though I am majoring in managerial marketing, I am using my graphic design skills to get me through college. I already have a job in Ohio at an advertising agency when I go out to school but I still don't have the finances for a computer! I am working three jobs this summer (my own home improvement business, a public relations internship, and an unpaid internship for a website) so I am doing all that I can! I need this opportunity!
My twitter account is pkennedy17112. I encourage you to go to my online portfolio and check out my published works! www.wix.com/swimmer156/My-Portfolio

Greetings.
My name is David King and my twitter account is djking7732. Here is my tweet of this contest: http://twitter.com/djking7732/status/17670129998
I wish to win this computer not for myself but for my wife. She has worked very hard throughout her life yet something bad always happens to her. Just three years ago, her life took a major turn when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Yet she still had to work despite her illness because our savings were not enough to pay for her staggering medical bills. We even moved back with my parents so that we can squeeze as much money possible out of our expenses. It was perhaps the toughest three years we have ever lived. Thankfully she is a strong woman and has since recovered. Unfortunately, in another twist of event, she was laid off from her job. After couple months of actively seeking employment without much luck, she has decided to go back to school to get her master degree as to improve her chance of employment when the economy gets better. Right now, she is taking summer classes at our local college and working part-time as well. As for me, I am juggling two jobs right now. The two of us share a desktop computer that is a bit outdated. My wife often expresses her frustration while she works on her school work because our clunker would either freeze or lag terribly after some time of use. And adding one GB of ram only improved its performance a little bit. Sadly, we couldn't afford to buy a new computer because we could barely get our ends meet every month and our debts seem to keep on growing despite our best efforts. So as you can see, winning this computer would truly be a huge blessing to our life. It would really put a big smile on her face and mine too.
Thank you for your considerations and have a good day, sir.

What a wonderful prize! Our current 8 year old desktop needs to be replaced desperately. My laptop is on its second hard-drive and defuct battery. Both systems were from the same brand and total lemons. With school coming back up next month this would be such a god-send. Lets just say I really hope to hear from you! :-)

I am deserving of this glorious system the ThinkCentre a63 Tower PC & Dual ThinkVision 22" L2250p Monitors, because I am using my computer skills in organizing and helping plan and the Night Out Block Party 2010 for my neighborhood. http://www.nationalnightout.org/nno/about.html. The next step is to get the Neighborhood Watch organized and I can do all this much easier with a faster computer and two monitors.

Sorry, The first time I pressed "Post" the browser said it timed out and the second time it just hang and the third time it went through fast. Now it is posted three times. I have fast broadband Internet so it must be my old computer. No cancel button so I just deleted the text for #89 and #90.
