  2. The first thing I would do with an Ultrabook this holiday is finally type up all of my mom’s awesome recipes!

  8. The first thing I would do would become the most ecstatic thankful person! Then I would continue to use it for school for the continuing semesters since I don’t even have a laptop!

  12. The first thing I would do is unlock the possibilities of the internet and run the multitudes of games that a 2003 IBM cannot run, nor does it have the battery life to do so. Then I would prep it for BYOT (bring your own technology) for my school.

  13. After I stopped screaming 🙂 I would unbox my newest addiction and first and foremost click on the internet and tweet and blog about my new Acer Ultrabook. Of course I would tell everyone about chipchick!

  19. The first thing I would HAVE to do, is prove to my husband that “YES” I actually DID Win it and “NO” I did not buy it as a gift for myself because i’m greedy and selfish. hehehe.

  25. My parents are in need of an upgrade; plus with them traveling… it would be nice to have them keep in touch. So I would convert my parents from Windows XP into a laptop/touchscreen user and make their life a little easier with Windows 8 (maybe not at first, but they’ll get used to it). Happy Holidays!

  31. 1st thing I would do? That’s easy- I’d brace myself for the cheers and whooping from my son when he opened his very own laptop gift!

  34. The first thing I would do is download some great apps and have a great evening with my family – watching video, reading books, etc!

  35. The first thing I would do is download some games and email addresses. It would be so nice not having to wait for my kids to finish homework, etc., before I get to use our computer. This would be great. Thanks for this chance.

  37. My daughter loves to paint, and those Windows 8 commercials sure look good. The first thing I’d do if I win this is to let her have a go at that Painting App!! (then perhaps she’ll never let me touch this ultrabook again)

  39. I’d use it to stay connected on the go. I don’t have a laptop and would love to surf, email and shop everywhere!

  48. Find lots of opportunities to bring it out in company and explain how amazing the new ultra books are. 🙂

  63. I would give it to my son who is asking for a Windows 8 Ultrabook for Christmas! This would be a great Christmas for us both! Thank you for the chance!

  66. I’d get all my Christmas shopping done, menus planned, cards designed and ordered… Fingers crossed!

  77. The first thing would be to check out that awesome sound, then map out my destination, and they say hi to family…oops, that is 3 things !

  84. If i had a brand new ultrabook i would be using it for games, school work and sharing it with my family becuase whats a holiday season without your family!! thanks for the chance

  86. Make a cup of hot coco and use it to keep me warm and watch movies to make my girlfriend jealous 😛

  88. The first thing I would do would be to set it up and then give to my Dad for his Christmas gift. His laptop is getting very old and doesn’t work well any longer. He’d be so surprised!

  97. I will finally have the luxury of discovering and exploring the infinite possibilities a personal computer could offer me, but most of all, get a chance for continued learning and self-improvement, since I’m just sharing our family computer with the kids now and of course, like a good mom, I always give them priority and could only get a limited use of our computer after everyone else is done.

  112. I would get all my university stuff ready and transferred only to go in to complete disarray with release if SIM CITY 5!

  113. Wrap it up and give it to my daughter as her gift. Needs a laptop for school next year. Want an ultra book for weight and battery life.

  122. The first thing I’d do is be grateful & give thanks to ChipChick. I really need a new laptop by all means. I’m sitting at a desk using a slow dinosaur because I can’t afford a new laptop.

  127. thank ChipChick for giving me an ultrabook in my birth month, December :). I’m traveling to my native country soon so I am in desperate need of a portable computer. i’ll also be handy for school.

  132. as i would not have it very long i would most likely use it to connect to a retailer and get a second one for me as my wife would most likely make off with the first one

  139. I’d jump up jump and get downnnn! 🙂 No, I’d really love it for blogging. I have a slow PC so it takes so long. This would help speed up things and give me more time with my daughter and family!

  146. Finally condense my one very old and one old laptop into one new fast and flashy laptop. No more which laptop has that file again???

  164. The first thing I would do is spend my GC’s by shopping online with my new Acer Aspire.

  176. shopping! would be super fast loading pages.. hafta spend all those gift cards, right? this ultrabook would do it!

  178. holiday videos, e-mails, kids would play games but most importantly I would set it up for my work as a consultant for my projects in January.

  184. The first thing I would do is try to transfer my pics and music from my old emachines laptop that died on me yesterday

  193. With it’s full HD display and Dolby audio, this would serve as my mobile entertainment hub. Movies, music and games would look and sound impressive on it!

  200. Honestly, I would give this to my mom. She’s disabled and can’t use a desktop computer, so she needs a lightweight laptop thats easy to use, right now she’s using an old laptop that that needs a UBS mouse to work. It’s hard for her to use with her hands, so I usually end up letting her use my tablet because it’s small. I’d be thrilled to surprise her with this new Acer and watch her check out all of the cool features on Windows 8! Thanks! 🙂

  203. I would download pictures from my phone to my snapfish account to print. I could do it on my phone but it would be so much easier and quicker on a nice laptop. Thank you!

  223. With a new Ultrabook, the first thing I would do is try it out on Wifi at a coffee shop or bookstore.
