Three lucky Atomicans get their chance to put tech to the test.

The life of a Tech Journo is one filled with martinis, stretch limousines, giant wads of free money and more gold-plated teeth than you can poke a stick at.

Thanks to the guys over at ASUS we've been able to bring three Atomicans into the fold; sweeping them underneath our wing and stuffing a 4890 into their waiting hands.

We're getting them to benchmark the tech as hard as they can, write a review and even possibly get published in the magazine!

The three lucky folk who won are listed below:

  • D. Gill, NSW
  • S. Bian, NSW
  • J. Bradshaw, QLD

They're getting their tech shipped to them as we speak (type?), so we wish them good luck and godspeed - they'll be in direct competition for that spot in the mag!

Congrats, and get to it!

 Fat_Bodybuilder, you almost gave me a fucking heart-attack, man.

It would "defiantly" be an interesting review if his past efforts are anything to go by.

 nesquick, the standard review length of 600 words (so basically one page).

Go into as much detail as you can squeeze into that space :)
