A request

Mar 3, 2007

Dear Laptop,
I know you're sluggish. I know you overheat. I know you have a very hard time keeping up with me. But if you could please hang on till Adobe releases Creative Suite 3, I would be so very, very grateful.

Thanks,
Your owner

Dear Adobe,
I've read that Creative Suite 3 will be released sometime in March through July of 2007. Could you please do me a huge favor and release it sooner rather than later? I have a laptop that is waiting for this to happen so it can go to the great Scottsdale in the sky.

Thanks,
Your customer

Dear Apple,
The next time you're ready to release a major overhaul of your system, can you please contact the companies that make the software that a lot of your customers use earlier so we can use your gigahertz of dual-processing power with the software that we want to use?

Thanks,
Your troubleshooter

Dear Stool Pigeon,
If you know when Adobe is releaseing CS3, could you please let it slip to me? I'll pay you and I'll promise not to share.

Thanks,
Your Secret Admirer

Dear Taxman,
When you process our tax forms, can you do your best to not make it cost us a whole lot? See I want a new computer, and if you're going to tell me I have to empty my savings account to pay you, I'm going to have to wait longer to buy a computer and that will make me sad. Very sad.

Thanks for your assistance,
Your client

Dear Self,
You really do need to make a decision about whether you go with the 15" MacBook Pro, the 13" MacBook, or a refurbished laptop that is older. And you need to decide if it is a better deal to get a new computer or a refurbished computer. And you need to decide if the $350 gamble to get the Apple Protection Plan is worth it. I know you hate making these kinds of decisions. But the more you read about this, the more confused you get. So maybe you should stop reading and start deciding? Just a suggestion.

Thanks,
Your Id
