Depends on where you work... it's an deal offered by Intel to employees of stores who sell Intel products.

Here's the site: http://retailedge.intel.com/

If you work at one of these stores, i'd suggest you sign up, it's only while supplies last:

Best Buy
BJ's
Brandsmart
Business Depot
Circuit City
CompUSA
CompuSmart
Costco
Datavision
Fry's
Future Shop
Gateway
J&R Computer World
Micro Center
Office Depot
Radio Shack Canada
RCM
Sam's Club
Sears
Staples
Walmart

EDIT: Just found out they sold out within' 22 hours from when the deal started...

Surround sound out of a computer always struck me as rather pointless.

Fun for gaming. Hear someone coming up from behind you or hear bullets whizzing past, add to the experience.

no i couldn't, because Intel calls the store you work at to verify with your GM that you work there.
