Dear Apple,

Thanks to your AppleCare repair department (the place you send all student computers to for repair), my iBook is broken. I had it sent in twice before the warranty was up for the same video problem and it happened a third time outside of warranty. The third time completely crippled the machine.

Hurry up and release Leopard already! Or at least give me a coupon for a free upgrade or something. I've been without a Mac since November, want to buy one but I will not until Leopard is out so I don't have to spend even more money for a software upgrade. I'm a college student, I'm not rich! But I'm getting sick of my PeeCee!

Also, if I purchase a Mac with my student discount and purchase AppleCare without a student discount, will the computer get sent to a different facility (I heard Apple uses different facilities for student computers than regular retail customers)? I don't want my new computer getting cosmetically, internally and functionally damaged like my old iBook the 3 times I had to get it repaired.

Sincerely,
A Broke College Student That Wants A New Apple With Leopard
