Posted by CmdrTaco on from the put-on-your-crash-helmet dept.

LuMinoR writes "In a cool contest with a Halloween theme, BitDefender is inviting Linux enthusiasts to crash test their upcoming antivirus solution for Linux e-mail servers. The most thorough beta tester will receive 1,000 German beers and a trip to BitDefender's corporate headquarters in Romania, where they will attend meetings with Count Dracula, the BitDefender development team and other local luminaries."

    Just give me the $8k for two weeks testing and I guarantee that I will find so many problems that you'll be busy for months.

    Otherwise, why would I bother participating in this just for the possibility of being paid? ... I do all the work and someone else gets paid... right. I imagine everyone else with actual skill is thinking the same thing.
