Windows Chip In brings crowdfunding to students' PC purchases

Think of all the things crowfunding has helped bring into the world lately, from gaming consoles to smart watches. And really, with all we've given it, the least it can do is help us get a computer. If you're a student with an active .edu email account, you can use Microsoft's new Windows Chip In site to convince family and friends to help you get your hands on the new Windows PC you've been eying, along with a copy of Office 365 University. The program runs now through the first of September, just in time to get some real work done on the thing. There's a link to Chip In below, and you can find out a bit more info on the program via the Windows Blog post.
