    There is a huge contest that Dell will be promoting unto college students around the country. It is called Residence Rennovation and they are looking forward to give out huge amounts of prizes. The ultimate prize will be Dell rennovating your dorm, apartment, or living quarters whether you live on or off campus. It is very similar to Extreme Home Makeover, but more towards a college student. Thought this would be a good idea to share to everyone that might be interested.

    Here is the contest in much more detail from DellUniversity website:

    I think this is a fairly fun and easy contest to get involved with. Put your name down if you submitted something to Dell so that we could see what everyone submitted to the website. I'm thinking about taking a picture of a dump and posted it on the website. Pretty sweet to take a look at!
