VMWare Fusion Contest

It’s a pretty cool idea. Get your customers to produce a video or blog post about why you switched to Fusion and win a MacBook Air or an iPod Touch–and other goodies just for participating! Here’s an excerpt about the contest:

My Switch to VMware Fusion

The VMware Fusion team is proud to announce a new video contest, entitled “My Switch to VMware Fusion”:http://www.vmware.com/landing_pages/switchtofusion/video-contest.html

As part of our new campaign (http://vmware.com/switchtofusion) encouraging Mac users to switch to VMwareFusion for Windows on Mac, we are kicking off a video contest wherein users who have already switched to Fusion pull together a 60 second video on why they switched to VMware Fusion to run Windows on their Mac, and post it on the web. . . .

In thanks, every single participant will get a VMware Fusion team t-shirt exactly like the team had at Macworld, and a “My Mac Loves VMware” bumper sticker. All they have to do is submit their work on the video contest page! . . .

Blogs too!

Not into video? That’s ok. Users who simply blog about their “Switch to VMware Fusion” will get a “My Mac Loves VMware” bumper sticker, and the best story of a Switch to Fusion will get a shiny new iPod touch. Can’t run Windows on it, but it’s still cool!

Maybe I can find some time. If you’re a switcher and have the time, no reason not to participate. I love these guys (in the generic, gender-inclusive sense)!
