So as I'm driving into work this morning cussing the woman in front of me for having a nice long cell phone chat for the last 20 minutes.  What could you possibly have to talk about at 6:30 a.m. in the morning for 20 minutes?!?  Anyhow, I happen to hear this radio commercial for some new Mountain Dew contest called Old School Or New.  Like all cola contests recently, you collect caps from select Mountain Dew bottles and enter the code to win.

Grand prize is a Chevrolet Corvette, but for those of us arcade junkies, they're also offering up a custom Mountain Dew arcade cabinet loaded with several old school games:

"Includes 178 games. The Arcade system comes with an internal powerful computer running Windows XP home which includes a 80GB hard drive, & it's compatible with existing PC software & hardware. Equipped with a 22" WideScreen LCD flat panel high-resolution monitor, premium 2.1 audio sound system with subwoofer, mouse & keyboard & an Ethernet adapter for access to the Internet & e-mail."

Sure, it's probably not the greatest quality in the world, but if you're a Dew Head, like I used to be, and are drinking the breakfast of champions, why not go ahead and take the time to enter.

Heck, the 22" LCD is worth it on it's own.
