I think it was listed on the Gencon site, in the event description. I have not registered, therefore cannot view it, and therefore cannot confirm, but I am pretty sure someone copied it and posted it somewhere on WotC. It's your job to go figure out where, since i am lazy today :)

Heh, go figure! Copied from the GenCon site: "This is your chance to be the U.S. National Champion. A trophy and a laptop to 1st! An iPod Touch to 2nd and additional prizes to the Top 8"
I'd personally rather they just do cash or the complete Miniatures set. But, you take what you can get, I guess. I'm probably more excited about the possibility of the Trophy like last year's trophies, which will probably be of pieces from the Galaxy At War set.

Also depends on what the laptop is. If it's an Alienware or something cool like that...totally worth it. But if 2nd place is an iPod Touch, that's roughly $250 or so. So, I wouldn't expect the laptop to worth much more than about $500. Good for posting on the forums, but not much else.

actually I was thinking if it would be cooler to have one of those min laptops for 2nd prize that is good for surfing only..... it has a hrad drive big enough for mini mgr and vassal but not much more. They are wifi friendly too that would be pretty cool honestly

I'm happy with my laptop.... getting a new one? Eh... it's not really a prize, maybe good to sell it if you win, but who would buy it? I think they should up the prize that more SWM-related...

Well that is probably true but when you have 3 laptops in a house and 2 desktops.... and you still are short computers sometimes I am thinking that would work good for me. But that is from a certain point of view...... hmmmm seems like I have heard that somewhere before.
