Haswell NUC Prizes

[Nikolay_S_1]

Have the Haswell NUC prizes for 1st Phase top demos already been awarded?

5 December:
We WILL be announcing the NUC winners next week

It is appreciated that contests take a lot of organising (I do it myself) but it would be good if you could provide a realistic date for the announcement. These contests are exciting and the rewards are fantastic, please don't take the edge off them with this waiting game!

Ten days ago I received an email with this message:

We will announce those winners at the end of this week, or early next week.

Always is the same, next week.

I think they give away this device to plug the camera in and develop our demo with it. I don't understand why it is getting so long.

Yess!!
NUC awards have been declared.

Has anybody got $1000 award?

Thanks

[Alarcon_Palomar__Osc]

I'm not sure what do you mean with declared.

Congratulations!

I got one too, very excited though it says it could take 2 - 3 weeks to actually receive it and could be longer for me because customs here is pretty bad. I bought a computer recently to develop with anyways but I like the form factor of the NUC. 

[Pruthviraj_N_]

Anybody got email for $1000 prize after you received NUC notification mails?

Thanks

I assume by now that if you haven't received an email that you will not receive a NUC ? i.e have all winners been informed yet ?

I asked that, and they answered me that all participants will know if we have won or not a NUC.

I just received a mail from Customs about a FedEx package with the NUC !

The surprise was that it comes with memory, HD, and wifi.

This is the content of the package:

Intel NUC BOXD54250WYKH1 - N82E16856102055

MT8KTF51264HZ-1G6  Micron 4GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz

WD3200LPVX   SATA 6 Gb/s,   5,400 RPM,     320 GB

Wireless-AC 7260, 2x2 AC + BT, M.2

Thanks Intel!! I can't wait to receive it and start working wit it :-)

[Carles_V_]

It's an awesome Christmas present :-p

[R_Guth]

Wow, that's awesome they include the rest of the parts to get it running right away. Did you receive an email that they had shipped your NUC? My email said they would send me the tracking number when it was shipped but I haven't received one yet. 

[Carles_V_]

No, I only received the mail from Customs.

[Pruthviraj_N_]

Awesome!! Does it include USB 3.0???

[Carles_V_]

Yes, in theory it have 4 USB 3.0: 2 in the back 2 in the front.

Hi,

I have not received any e-mail notification (positive or negative) about NUC prizes or early submission cash prizes.

Only an "Early Demo App Bonus - Submission Received" notification, so I suppose winners have been already awarded or received a NUC computer,

Congratulations, Happy Coding and Happy New Year!!

[Pruthviraj_N_]

I received my NUC! 

Excited!
