I was out of the office traveling for about a week earlier this month. When I got back, one of my coworkers commented that they weren’t sure I still worked in the office because my desk was so clean.
What they couldn’t see was the disorganized jumble of crap I have stored in my file drawers.
The reason I keep my desktop free of clutter is to help me stay focused on work while I’m trying to get things done. It’s my personal desktop Zen.
To help you achieve your own desktop Zen, I want to give you the chance for a desktop makeover. I recently did a video about the HP EliteDesk 800 Desktop Mini, which is a small form factor desktop that packs a serious punch.
Think of the HP EliteDesk 800 Desktop Mini as an opportunity to reclaim your desktop.

One HP EliteDesk 800 Desktop Mini will be given away. I’m going to keep this giveaway fairly simple. The are three ways to secure your spot in the giveaway:
Post a photo or video of your current desk configuration on Instagram and tag the post with both #HPElite and #DesktopMakeover. Feel free to tag me on Instagram (@jakeludington) as well, though that isn’t required.
Post your photo to my Show us your work space group on Flickr.
Share a photo or video of your current desk configuration on Twitter and tag the tweet with both #HPElite and #DesktopMakeover. Feel free to mention me (@jakeludington) in your tweet as well, though that isn’t required.
All posts must be made by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on 30 January 2015. The computer will be given to one entry selected at random from all entrants. If you submit your entry using all three options, all three will be included in the random selection process.
While I like to keep things simple, here is the fine print for the giveaway:
- You must reside in the USA or Canada to be eligible because this is a North American computer product.
- The giveaway is for a PC that ships with a keyboard and mouse in the box. No monitor will be included.
Best of luck to you! You can read more about the HP EliteDesk 800 Desktop Mini on the official HP product page.
