    It seems everyone is getting excited about the Hobbit in New Zealand. And you could be jetting off to visit some of the landscapes used in the film!

    Our next riddle is a bit more difficult to find - it's hidden, but in plain view - What is it?!

    aha! good old white text on a white background, I can find the riddle not so good at solving it :o

    With each ASUS notebook, this term is the key,
    Either coming or going, for keeping you free.
    An amazing concoction, mechanically.
    It could be a person, but it isn’t a he.

    ah just seen the last paragraph on that page about SHE technology but what would be the overall describing term?
    Powerful performance with an always on and always connected experience


    Tap into the smoothness and spontaneity of true 2-second instant on resume with (SHE) II technology, giving N Series notebooks smartphone-like immediacy. Coupled with the might of 3rd generation Intel® Core™ processors and the convenience of exclusive USB Charger+ quick device charging, the N Series embodies portable power.
  • don't wish to be a pain - but can anyone see any of the details for the prize. Is this for real! No mention of duration of stay in New Zealand or anything.
    Or have I missed something.

    That says

    The main prize is a Trip in New-Zealand for two and one ASUS N56 laptop.

    do actual details of the trip like for how many and how long?
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
    (Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)

    Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change

    One of the technologies they promote is termed SHE, which is a power saving tech using s/w and h/w. So could have a mechanical element, keeps you free longer (less need to plug in), is linked to the 'instant on' button/key, and is a she, not he.
