Engadget's recession antidote: win a Mint 130 Digital Music Station!

This whole global economic crisis, and its resulting massive loss of jobs got us thinking. We here at Engadget didn't want to stand helplessly by, announcing every new round of misery without giving anything back -- so we decided to take the opportunity to spread a little positivity. We'll be handing out a new gadget every day (except for weekends) to lucky readers until we run out of stuff / companies stop sending things. Today we've got a 30 watt Mint 130 Digital Music Station on offer, able to fill your office with tunes from an iPod, PC, or Mac. Read the rules below (no skimming -- we're omniscient and can tell when you've skimmed) and get commenting!

Special thanks to Digital Signature for providing the gear!

The rules:

• Leave a comment below. Any comment will do, but if you want to share your proposal for "fixing" the world economy, that'd be sweet too.
• You may only enter this specific giveaway once. If you enter this giveaway more than once you'll be automatically disqualified, etc. (Yes, we have robots that thoroughly check to ensure fairness.)
• If you enter more than once, only activate one comment. This is pretty self explanatory. Just be careful and you'll be fine.
• Contest is open to anyone in the 50 States, 18 or older! Sorry, we don't make this rule (we hate excluding anyone), so be mad at our lawyers and contest laws if you have to be mad.
• Winner will be chosen randomly. The winner will receive one Mint 130 Digital Music Station. Approximate value is $119.
• If you are chosen, you will be notified by email. Winners must respond within three days of the end of the contest. If you do not respond within that period, another winner will be chosen.
• Entries can be submitted until Monday, March 16th, 11:59PM ET. Good luck!
• Full rules can be found here.

Winning this speaker set would make it more likely that I'd finally buy an iPod (to replace my off-brand mp3 player), thus stimulating the economy. . . Thanks!

I think it's time some of these "well to do" people start forking over some cash to help this economy. That's what people did during The Great Depression.
