If your idea of magic is an unbelievably awesome package of hardware, HP is definitely delivering a magical experience this holiday season. As I indicated earlier this month, I have a huge giveaway in the works. I'm participating in the HP Magic Giveaway, which is happening across 50 different blogs. Each of the 50 participating sites is giving away a massive package of HP hardware including:

HP TouchSmart IQ816 PC HP HDX 18 series Premium Notebook PC HP Pavilion dv4 series Entertainment Notebook PC (with Windows Live) HP Mini 1000 (with XP) HP MediaSmart Connect

Yes, that is one huge touch screen computer, two notebook PCs, and an HP Mini just like the one I purchased for traveling. Oh, and a Media Center Extender so you can easily access your media from your home theater. All that's missing is the partridge in a pear tree. The rest of the package includes:

HP Photosmart C6380 Wireless AIO (printer) HP 564 Photo Value Pak Microsoft Office Home and Student Edition 2007 (Student-Teacher Edition) — 1 DVD with 3 licenses Microsoft Windows Live Corel VideoStudio X Kung Fu Panda (2 widescreen DVDs; 1 widescreen Blu-Ray)

One lucky person will be awarded the entire package given away here. There will be a recipient at each of the other 49 sites as well. I can't announce the particulars of how you get a chance at acquiring this sweet package yet, but one small component of the giveaway will be enticing you to pay it forward.
