Other World Computing (www.macsales.com) has marked its 25th year with a special 25th Year Kickoff with a charitable focus. The sweepstakes will award 25 randomly chosen participants a Mac and PC compatible OWC Mercury On-The-Go Pro bus-powered portable storage solution featuring 1TB of storage and FireWire 800/400 and USB 3.0/2.0 interfaces.

There are two ways to enter the 25th Year Kickoff Celebration' Sweepstakes: online or via mail-in entry. To enter online, log on to http://eshop.macsales.com/celebrate/25th , subscribe to OWC's free Hot Deals Blast newsletter and follow the entry directions.

Complete entry details including eligibility, odds and prize conditions are listed
at http://eshop.macsales.com/celebrate/25th/rules . A total of 25 winners will
be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries on or about December 17. The winners will be notified by telephone, e-mail or mail service by
Dec. 28. No purchase is necessary to enter or win.

For every person that signs up for the sweepstakes, OWC will donate US$1 to charity: water, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing clean and safe

drinking water to people in developing nations. OWC will donate $1 for each of
its nearly 5,000 Twitter followers.

And for every new Twitter follower of OWC from Nov. 1 to Dec. 31, OWC will donate another $1. If you want to donate yourself OWC will match the contribution.

On average, every $20 raised brings clean, safe drinking water to one person. For more information, or to make a direct contribution, visit http://mycharitywater.org/owc-25th-anniversary
