Analog Devices' Contest "Guess the # of Gs"

Dang, I'm not sure how I missed this but Analog Devices ran a " Guess the G's Contest" in a promotion for one of their accelerometers (model # not identified). It was placed in an Estes Big Daddy model rocket and launched on video by Patrick Kusior. Andy Robinson, one of 4,900 entrants, guessed exactly the correct number of 5.561 Gs. He is now the proud owner of an iPad. Watch the video by clicking on the thumbnail above. Another contest will be announced in a couple months.

Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
