  • And the winner for Intel Week is …

    Believe me. We had a hard time deciding who would win this one. Yung mga iba, kinarir talaga. As much as I would like to give away 20 computers, this week we can only give away one big prize. FYI I’m also being helped by someone from Intel’s PR because the entries are just SOOO…
