I won my first personal computer in a contest through the newspaper. Every week the paper would post a question related to geography or world events and kids around the city would submit their answers. After 2-3 months they took the names of the kids who got all the answers and held a lottery drawing and I won! I also got my name and picture in the newspaper!
What's funny is my geography teacher told us the questions were for homework and never mentioned the contest or prizes at all.
The specs of the pc I won? Pentium 75 and I think 4/8 megs of ram. Aaah the good old days It's with this machine I actually got my start with Starcraft. I believe I JUST met the minimum requirements to play 
Lucky me!
