Well another competition draws to a close. A big thanks to everyone who entered our ioSafe Disaster Proof Hard Drive competition. The correct answer was 1550�F for half an hour. Well without further ado let’s get on with things. The winner of the competition is Wes (no surname), who not only provided the correct answer and was randomly chosen but also included a very nice recipe for serving your ioSafe drive after it has been baked. Congratulations Wes, I’ll pass…

Ta-da, and we have a winner of our fabulous competition to win a super groovy Wicked Lasers Elite Laser. I must say I did enjoy your entries…some of you are very weird, aren’t you? Excellent!
