Awwwww nooooooooo US only
noooooooooooooooooo

Too right! They can come over here for our olympics, steal Nicole Kidman and Elle McPherson, and they don't even give us a fair go at the prize!

Unfair Koala Bear!

I just hope THG will give us all some info of the winner and his/her comments. If I win this then I'll give my SLi rig to my bro since his is only good for pong. :p :D :D :D

WHY!?! Why is it always US only!?! I registered just to post this question...It can't be that hard to ship international. I'd even pay for the shipping myself if I won! :cry:

Well I'll thread you the puppy for a E6600. :p

So Tom's is only giving a $10K? That's it? No other prizes? Like a 128Mb dimm or something? :( So I guess there would only be one winner.

I should win..... so I can sell it and buy a car.

Not really, I'd keep the damn thing and never upgrade for like 8 years.

It's my girlfriend's chiwawa (not the one in the avatar) and it's very lazy and wants to be carried around the place. I'm trying to get rid of it, it's eating my shoes every time I go to work. If you win the $10K pc I'll trade you with this puppy and I will tell my girl that it's missing. :p

I thought it funny that on such an anti mac site that they are giving away a apple display. I mean, yeah, it is the best, and the most stylish, but i thought for certain it would be a 30" Dell. But yeah, I WANT IT. Why can't i be 18!!!!!

I had to spend my saved money last month on a car because my '87 junker died. I was going to buy a pc, but this will do instead!

Just sign your dad up instead. At least you're technically an american, and you have an american residence, unlike me. That thing is t3h s3x. If you win that DDay, you have to let me try it, and/or give me your opty rig and I can give my rig to my brother. We all feel sad that he's practicing for the nationals in starcraft on a 411 MHz computer. At least it has an agp slot, probably 1x though. Lol, it also has 3 ISA slots, which is even funnier.

Ewwwwww Onboard Audio

I reiterate! Ewwwwww!

Other than that and the wireless speakers(God I hate wireless speakers), that's an incredible gaming rig, and I'm definitely entering to get it anyhow.(Who the hell has hyper-expensive speakers and *horrible...Fuzzy...Quirky* onboard audio instead of a soundcard? Really)

Yeah I noticed that. There's should be sound card and better speakers, but hey $10,000 it is. It's perfect for me to win this since I got a nice sound card (X-Fi) and speakers (Klipsch). :D I love Falcon PC eventhough I can't afford one I just visit their sites anyhow and drool. :(

I just tried to enter this morning and got a message that I already voted. Something's wrong, this is the first time I tried to enter.

This is dumb.. considering the fact that toms started in the UK, by a german - why the heck is this only available to the yanks... that's a real kick in the teeth ! Or are you planning a Quad SLI for us faithful europeans *wink* *wink* ;)
