Thanks for all the encouragement so far- I think the voting begins after the webinar today to commemorate the 15th anniversary of Thinkpads.

That is scheduled for 1:30 EST.

I am anxious too!

I was very impressed with your video. I have voted for you. I wish you all the luck in the world. Honestly, I had forgotten your name at the time of voting. I picked the video that I liked best and voted. Then I pulled up the forum and saw that yeah!!! I had picked your video. Good luck!

if the page says 'service unavailable" it just means there is heavy traffic-give it a moment and refresh-should go through then.......

And you can vote more than once!
