You can see the video here (http://www.jawapro.com/lego/) if you're interested. Cheers, Rob Hey,

I won the Vespa in this competition early in the year – and MS contacted me before the deal restarted and asked me to turn my blog into a short movie – and I scored an Xbox and a copy of Halo 3 for my efforts.

I wrote my blog just for a laugh - and wasnt sure it was worth submitting. But this morning I got an email saying I'd won. I'm still not sure I believe it. And thanks for your comments mate. I remember stumbling across your blog when I was trying to work out if the deal was legit or not. Your comment about wondering if you'd classify for the Golden Blog seems almost prophetic now. Cheers mate, Robert Lol – thanks mate.

Four cute dolls from the Scripting Guys. (I had to complete some on-line training to get some of the stuff.) Stuff I won from you: 1. Really nice Vista mouse pad. Might make a nice article if you could collect a list of prizes that Microsoft has handed out recently! Oh. I got all the parts to build my 64-bit AMD computer. Got to get back to work!

And don't get sad if your new player is a Samsung. I really loved my YP-Z5 (until it was stolen). @Corrine: I think the Zune is US-only. Congratulations!

I do wonder about the prize you won though. Strange that it isn't a Zune. Congratulations both for the prize here as well as being described as "one of the web's most respected Vista bloggers" in “Tricks of the Vista Masters”.
