The drawing is for one of five gift cards valued at U.S. $50 and can be used to purchase hats, mugs, T-shirts and more from the Linux.com Store. With membership new individual members will get an "I Believe" T-shirt as well.
Individual members of The Linux Foundation help advance the Linux operating system. Exclusive individual membership benefits include a Linux.com email address; employee purchase pricing from Dell, HP and Lenovo; 35 percent off O’Reilly books and e-books and more.
Existing members and non-member are eligible and can enter the drawing by mailing their name and email address to The Linux Foundation headquarters.
