    Thumbs up Win a Corepad Mousing Surface!

    Along with the review sample Corepad, the Corepad company's owner, Marcel, sent us a Corepad to give away as a competition prize for the HEXUS readers. It's a fully boxed Corepad with 50cm of Corepad Skatez (hard to find in the U.K!), the neoprene stability sheet and the small instruction leaflet.



    All you have to do to win it is count the number of times the words MOUSING SURFACE are used together as a phrase in this article, and post your answer in this very forum thread.

    As a tiebreaker question incase a bunch of you get it right, also state a guess for the weight of the Corepad (on its own without the neoprene sheet, as measured by me using my digital scales ) and the nearest guess (to the metric gram) will win the Corepad.

    Get your entries in by the end of next week (Friday 13th August) and I'll contact the winner using the forums for his or her postal address, to send it out as soon as possible.

    The only rules are that you must be resident in the U.K (sorry to our overseas readers!) and that HEXUS forum staff or main site employees aren't allowed to enter. You only get one guess/post, but you can edit that guess/post containing as much as you like before next Friday. A final hint: it's not as obvious as you may think.

    Good luck!

    But 'Mousing Surfaces' also includes 'Mousing Surface', plus there's the title and the drop down box which are all a part of the article .

    Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,
    I would spread the cloths under your feet:
    But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.
