<h1 id="my-new-laptop">My new laptop</h1>
<p>I attended <a href="https://oggcamp.org/" title="OggCamp15">OggCamp15</a> in Liverpool at the end of October 2015. As usual I bought some raffle tickets as a contribution to the expenses of the (un-)conference, not paying much attention to the prizes.</p>
<p>Actually, the star prize was a laptop donated by <a href="https://entroware.com/" title="Entroware Ltd">Entroware</a>, a significant sponsor of the event, one of the most impressive prizes ever offered at OggCamp. There was quite a lot of excitement about this prize.</p>
<p>I attended the drawing of the raffle at the end of proceedings on the Sunday. <a href="https://danlynch.org/blog/" title="Dan Lynch&#39;s Blog">Dan Lynch</a> (of Linux Outlaws, and a frequent organiser of OggCamp) was in attendance overseeing the selection of the raffle tickets. Various smaller prizes were won and the tension built up as the final drawing approached.</p>
<p>Things got very tense when the first number drawn for the laptop was called and nobody responded. Then another draw was made.</p>
<p>Imagine my shock and surprise when I realised I had the winning ticket! I had won the star prize in the OggCamp raffle!</p>
