This is a screen that has to be seen to be believed. Zalman's Trimon 3D Monitor brings realistic 3D effects into your home when you view it while wearing the included polarising glasses. It works as a conventional high-quality 2D monitor when glasses aren't worn and has an integrated audio amplifier and speakers.

To get the 3D effect, you'll need a GeForce 5000 or higher graphics card. The technology is supported by more than 20 recent games and all specially filmed 3D movies.

We have one to give away.

Worth £350


Magix Movie Edit Pro 14 Plus

This flexible package makes it easy to edit and improve your movies. An automatic mode takes the hard work out of editing, but if you want to get your hands dirty, you can adjust special effects, fades and music any way you see fit. With various ways to change the settings and professional control elements, your PC will become a complete video studio.

Movie Edit Pro 14 Plus also makes it easier than ever to refine your video. The software has precision editing tools, movie-style special effects, 3D animation for videos, text and photos, freely definable camera movements, crystal-clear Dolby Digital sound and much more.

We have 12 copies to give away.

Worth £60


Kensington FM transmitters

www.uk.kensington.com

Kensington's FM transmitters are perfect for people who want to take their music collection on the road. The Universal FM Transmitter for MP3 player and the RDS FM Transmitter for iPod allow you to listen to music through a car stereo.

Powered by the car's cigarette lighter, the transmitters provide superior sound, thanks to ClearFM technology, which minimises noise and ensures optimal transmission. The transmitters each have three preset FM frequencies, making it easy to find a frequency to use for streaming music. RDS technology enables the song title and artist to be displayed on the car stereo.

We have five of each to give away.

Worth £40


Dicota Secure Notebook Locks

www.dicota.co.uk

Keep your laptop safe with this incredibly secure lock from Dicota. While other manufacturers use radial pin methods, Dicota uses a different type of design. Steel 'wings' emerge from the Secure Notebook Lock when locked, which means that over 66 per cent more internal surface area is locked to the laptop than with competing products. It's also very practical with a 5.5m cable and, according to tests at PC World and ComputaCenter, it fits 50 per cent more laptops than the current leading brand.

We have 10 notebook locks to give away.

Worth £34


MiBag laptop bags

www.exspect.co.uk

The MiBag is a high-quality black protective bag with a twist. With a simple yet effective on/off zip mechanism, you can give your classic black laptop case a more individual and stylish look simply by adding one of MiBag's many fascia designs to the front.

The MiBag is actually two bags in one; a smaller laptop bag pulls out of the larger one for when you don't want to carry the whole thing around. Available for 13in and 17in models, MiBag combines function and style.

We have six laptop bags to give away.

Worth £50
