MSDN Ultimate Subscription Contest

The .Net Users of Ft. Wayne will give away one (1) MSDN Ultimate Subscription to one lucky member in December 2010. There is a catch. You have to tell us why you should win. The MSDN Subscription was donated to our group by speaker Dan Rigsby from Indianapolis. The goal of this contest is to place the MSDN Subscription in the hands of a developer who will really use it.

When Dan spoke to our group last month, he was kind enough to donate an MSDN Ultimate Subscription to our group. Armanda asked, who wants it? Most of the hands in the room went up. The next question, who is willing to write a 500 work essay to try and get it? Same set of hands, and this contest was born.
