If you didn’t hear the news, Cult of Mac hit 100,000 Twitter followers last week. To celebrate, we hosted a huge giveaway yesterday on Twitter. Because some people were sad that they didn’t come away with a prize, we’ve decided to extend the celebration farther into the week and give readers a few more chances to win. Today we’re giving away a Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard for Mac. It’s one of the coolest new keyboards we’ve seen because you don’t have to keep spare batteries on hand anymore. If you want a shot at winning this beautiful thing here are the rules for today’s contest:
2 – Tweet an SAT style analogy (A : B :: X : Y) with @cultofmac at the end of the analogy
Example: “Android : iOS :: Nicholas Cage : Leonardo DiCaprio @cultofmac” (only yours will be funnier I’m sure)
We’ll go through, pull out the funniest tweeted analogies, and publish them on CultofMac.com tomorrow. Whoever our panel of judges deems to have written the funniest analogy will be the winner of the Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard. Get creative and have fun. Best of luck to everyone who participates.
Contest ends tomorrow (September 29th, 2011) at 3PM PDT.
(update)
We’ve gathered all the SAT analogies and after some heavy debating, we’ve determined the winner to be:
iPhone 4S : iPhone 5 :: Batman & Robin : The Dark Knight – @rick_wayne
Apple fanboys across the globe are probably going to be pretty disappointed on Tuesday so we felt @rick_wayne’s tweet expressed the bleakness pretty damn well. We had a ton of great entries though and were so happy to see so much participation. Here’s some other great SAT analogy tweets.

Is this an international giveaway? if not, it should be, because its not fair. I am sure a considerable amount of your followers are international and they should also get a chance.
Is that metal or just spray painted silver?
While it may very well be coated plastic, mine looks AND feels like metal. I’m not about to disassemble it to answer your question though. It’s very sturdy and light as well.
If it looks and feels like metal, that’s good enough for me.
Also, I appreciate the response. I’ve asked in several places including asking Logitech themselves and nobody ever answered.
