Nexus-7-2013

Say what!?!?!  You are giving a way an Asus Nexus 7 tablet?!?  Why yes, yes I am!  Aside from landing myself #20 on the Top Virtualization blogs at vSphere-land.com I also won myself a pretty sweet Nexus 7 tablet as well as one to giveaway to one of you fine folk.

You can thank the great people over at Veeam once again for this giveaway!  They sponsored this years blog voting with some awesome prizes including Sony headphones, Chromecasts, Pebble watches, Jockery Batteries and the Nexus 7 tablets.  Also, don't forget to reach out to Eric Siebert and thank him as well!  I know he puts countless hours into the blog voting – so let him know how much you appreciate it!

What is an Asus Nexus 7?

In its essence it's a 7 inch android tablet.  The real benefit though comes in the name Nexus, simply meaning you are getting a stock version of the Android OS – meaning they are free from all the bloatware or manufacture modifications and you will receive your software updates directly from Google, without reliance on the manufacturer.

As far as specifications go I'll let you check them out for yourself – but from what I've read the ASUS Nexus 7 really hits it home when it comes to design, display, and performance – so what more can you really ask for?

How to enter?

I didn’t feel like making this one too complicated – just leave a comment on this post.  What to comment on?!?!  It’s up to you really – talk about the significance of the number 20, tell the world something they don’t know about you, tell me how great the Habs are and how they are going to take home Lord Stanley, throw in a #ScottLoweFact, simply just bang away on your keyboard – your choice really!  Feel free to go ahead an use a fake email if you wish, but if I can't get a hold of you I'll just draw another name.  I’ll tally up the comments and have a random number generator give me the winner!  This contest will close at 11:59 PM EST on Thursday, April 24th so the clock is ticking!  Good luck!

    Congratulations on your accomplishments over the past year or so, and climbing to #20 in the Top Blogs. I’m currently reading through your Troubleshooting vSphere Storage book – good read. Keep up the work in the community. 🙂

    Congrats on being #20. Unfortunately, the Habs will not be taking Lord Stanley home this year as it will be spending another year in Chicago. Go Hawks!

    Congrats on 20! It’s a good number because it’s the optimal number of steps you can take to solve the most complicated Rubik’s cube.

    Congratulations! 20 is a tetrahedral number. 20-20 vision is perfect eyesight, proved by reading letters on a chart from 20 feet. The product of the number of divisors and the number of proper divisors of 20 is exactly 20. 20 is the only number with more than one digit that can be written from base 2 to base 20 using only the digits 0 to 9. It is at 20 that a person is no longer a teenager. Twenty is also a village in Lincolnshire, UK.

    NUMBER 20
    Those born under the influence of the number 20 incarnate to be of service to souls who are ailing and in need of help. Such individuals give Spiritual upliftment and guidance and live the humanitarian ideals.
    The keyword is ‘Universal Service.’

    I think you’re also doing a universal service spreading virtualization knowledge.

    I’m not sure what to think of the habs… I like them if they meet the bruins, but I don’t know that they would fare as well against the red wings or penguins. Im rooting for the guins but I don’t like their chances against the bruins or flyers. Gwelymernans@gmail.com

    Being in top 20 is not so bad. Even at this level your blog is very interesting for me and I’ve learned many things there. Keep the same tempo 😉

    I live in GA. We don’t know what hockey is or how to even keep a hockey team (3 teams have come and gone)! I do like to watch the punching in hockey though! 🙂

    Congrats on the ranking. And as for the Habs, I’m a Devils fan so I could care less about them. But if Martin Brodeur decides to keep playing and has to play for a team other than the Devils, I’d love to see him in a Habs sweater.
