    « Final vote for the MSDN giveawayMSDN Ultimate Subscription giveaway +1 »
    comments

    As you might know we are giving away 2 MSDN ultimate subscriptions, for the original announcement see here: MSDN Ultimate Subscription giveaway

    We decided on one of the winners already, for the other winner I decided to pull a Pontius Pilate on you so that nobody can blame me that they didn't win....yes I know it sounds like a cop out...that is because it is...and this is more fun.

    Here is what I did..I picked the 20 best answers and put them in 2 groups of 10. In each group 3 people will advance to a final vote, you can vote for two people. The results of those two polls will be looked at tomorrow morning around 9 AM EST and then a new poll will be created with the final 6 contestants.

    Make sure that you look at every person's answer, also check their links so that you can decide who should advance.

    The group A people can be found here: http://forum.lessthandot.com/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=11533
    The group B people can be found here: http://forum.lessthandot.com/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=11532

    Good luck everyone

    NanaLich Is that too late to submit my answer?
    My project will need tools included in a MSDN ultimate subscription, but those tools (like Expression Studio) are way too expansive...

    I'm working on a project will help people who use internet to sync their files and settings between their work place, home, and cybercafe -- I don't know how is cybercafe going in the US, but in China many people still use cybercafe -- It will need web access, shell integration, WPF and Silverlight, and I also need to test it on multi platforms, I believe a MSDN subscription is the best tool can help me with the project.

    Do I still have a chance?

    dyfhid Don't vote for me! I thank you if you want to, but I won this same prize at another blog, and am removed from winning in this one! Thanks if you already have, but please indicate to Denis that you'd like to vote for someone else!
