HP CANADA newsgram - October 2005
The horror! The horror! No matter how PC savvy we get,
seems there's always one tech-skeleton hidden deep in
those closets. What better time than shrieky, creaky
October to "tech-sorcise" what haunts us? But before
grabbing your garlic wreaths, why not take a sec to
skim these HP tricks and treats. Not only do they smell
better, but they'll help take the terror out of your
technology too. Boo-Yah!
This issue, it's not "tech-or-treat". It's both! Fill
your loot bag with a chance to win over $2,000 in HPs,
get a free camera with one of our business printers,
and download a freaky-deeky party kit to make your next
monster mash a smash hit. Then, revive lost files,
survive sans mouse, and wrap your noggin around the
whole "hi-def" TV phenomenon. Stick THAT to those rock
hard Halloween taffy wraps.
October's features...
+ Treats from "Thomas"
+ Free-ky party kit
+ Stellar HP TVs
+ Camera reward!
+ Halloween tips
+ Keyboard tricks
+ File reviver
Quick Tip:
Who you gonna call? HP Total Care Services! All your
HPs (big and small) get free 24/7 phone support, a one-
stop site for tech help, extended warranties and more.
New product showcase:
Believe it, Ripley. Our new tech's almost too easy -
like this HP Photosmart 425 Portable Photo Studio.
It's a camera, dock & printer bundle that can go cord-
free without a PC!
Here's what's hot ...
The little contest that could. Want to take home some
root-tootin' loot? Enter our Thomas the Tank Engine(TM)
contest now for your chance to win the grand HP prize:
a tricked out desktop PC, digital camera, photo
printer, and Thomas toys for those little railroaders!
Don't forget to check when Thomas will be chug-chug-
chugging to a mall near you. Now repeat after us: "I
think I won, I think I won ..."
Make your house "gore-geous". Pump up the goosebumps
at your next haunted gathering with this free Halloween
party kit from HP. It's got everything from eyeball
coasters to keep watch on your guests to icky dish
labels so you'll never mistake the "Bat Brains" for
"Intestines" again. (We hate when that happens ...)
Invasion of the HDTVs. They're heeere ... High-
definition TVs have arrived, and they come in peace.
Need proof? Take this warp-speed tour through the HDTV
phenomenon and see what's so cool about these uber-
tubes. Then, click here for the HDTVs that are outta
this world. Coincidence they're HP? We think not!
Aremac! Aremac! Aremac! (Just us, or did that work way
better in "The Shining"?) For a limited time, all work
and no play gets you a free CAMERA! Simply grab any
qualifying HP business printer for your home or office
between September 1st and October 31st, 2005, and we'll
send you a shiny new HP Photosmart M23 digital camera.
No heebie-jeebies. Just freebie.

Fearless factor. We won't say names, but for some trick-
or-treaters Halloween can feel far more spooky than
kooky. Sound heinous? Not to Canadian Living, who put
together this fun-tastic page filled with friendly
party themes, costume ideas and safety tips to keep
your little ghouls and goblins fear-free on the most
spook-tacular day of the year.
Mouse-henge (newsgram classic). Petrified of using your
PC, mouse-free? Wipe those cobwebs off your keyboard -
it's time for a little finger clickin' fun! Back by
popular demand, this classic keyboard command sheet
covers all the "hotkey" combos you need to compute like
a pro, and make your mouse ancient history.
The vex files (newsgram classic). You know that ink-
curdling scream you save for when your files
mysteriously disappear? Better get it out of your
system now, because after reading this recovery
article, you'll know how to dig up missing data,
protect your PC against future "vanishings" and never
fear losing your important documents again!
