My wife called me this morning to say a brand new Macbook AIR had been delivered to the house this morning… We have had some issues with one of my credit cards getting stolen so I thought something was up. I went home to check it out but it was sent to me from ACS SEO for the first ever comment contest!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thats right! Its ready to go! Now all we need to do is draw the name Sunday night and the winner will be announced Monday Morning in the September edition of the ShoeMoney newsletter!
Also I have been working on some really good articles for the newsletter you will not want to miss! So Sign up now!

I’m sorry to disappoint you Talk Binary, but you won’t get a Mac Book Air. It will be delivered to my steps instead

I believe it is commenting
[Reply]
I need to know the feeling of having someone call and say you got a free MacBook Air. Should be amazing
[Reply]
Someday, I’ll probably break down and own a mac. Until then, I’ll just envy the pretty box.

Ah, but I see you are commenting. So you are breaking down already.

There’s talk of a redesign for the macbook somewhere in september, but I will still take an “old” one
Good luck to everyone

The macbook (and possibly macbook pro) are getting redesigned. I’m not so sure the air is.

So anyone know were there are pictures of the new one, whats it going to have that is different.
[Reply]
Hell, send me that box!
…if the MacBook is stuck in it - I would be OK with that too.
[Reply]
Wow, there it is, that would make a perfect start to someone’s month!
Watch the comment spam hit, scramble for the last T-shirt day

I’m afraid to say what I would do for a Macbook Air.
Tres cool.

Why? It has no optical drive among other annoyances.
[Reply]
You should get a ShoeMoney Skin made to cover the Macbook Air with.

I can only see 2 scenarios: either the people abused the tool like it’s written on that page or they are improving the tool.

It was abused and has been taken down temporarily.

I just bought a new Toshiba and skinned it up real nice. Looks pretty sexy. But I’m still drooling over the MacBook Air. Who the hell needs an optical drive!
You rock Shoe.
[Reply]
Jeremy,

I always wanted a AIR, but can’t justify buying one…winning one however that is a different story.

I just had my wife call me to say that nothing has been delivered to my house yet.
[Reply]

If somebody could just clarify for me… Every day a commenter will be selected as the winner. On Sunday, a name will be drawn from the winners and that person will win a MacBook Air?
Is there a page with info about the contest?
(now, if I could just manage to come up with something insightful…)

[Reply]
Jeremy,
Sorry I missed you at SEO Strategies in San Jose, the Best of The Web guys said you had stopped by.
Macbook Air…Must obtain….must obtain..(Man-robot’s batteries discharged here …). Respectfully, Nicholas
[Reply]
Throw my name into the hat too, please.
[Reply]
Dear Gawd,
Puh-leeze jet me win that MacBook Air…. I promise, I’ll be good from now on! Amen.

[Reply]
OK, twist my arm you can send me the Air
[Reply]
Absolutely the best picture on your site is the one of you with the mac book air and the ipods. Should be made into a poster for your new office. Or have it made into a canvas.
[Reply]
Shoe, you should intervirew the winning person.
Or give a money making idea that you don’t have time to implement since it only makes 100-300 a day.
Or even not have a dinner but just to give up a secret advice that would let people “earn” a mac book air every month..
I have an idea - not sure if you would be able to launch a contest like this, but I think it will be better then any mac book air. Something that Warren Buffet does to raise money for charoties by having the annual dinners. Basically, if you could have a prize as a 1 hour dinner lunch or something. Whoever wins and if he is within the US, you can get a ticket to where he is from, fly down (if you want to visit that place, or just buy them a ticket to Nebraska to visit you), have a lunch and answer any questions, that will be posted along with the answers on this blog.
[Reply]
Same here, Markus. No random MacBooks in the mail. Maybe that can change? I’d love to win it
[Reply]

Man I hope I win! I could really use it for school and business!
[Reply]
Awesome. Quite a nice prize for the comment contest.
[Reply]
Please let me know when you will be sending it to me. Thanks in advance ..tom
