I heard my dad grumble this morning. He paid $ 160 last month for the MS Office 2007 Student edition for my new Vista machine. He mentioned something about hoping you being man enough like Mr. Steve Jobs to offer a $ 100 refund to early adopters - now that you are pricing the product at $ 60.
He grumbled last month when he installed it and found it did not include Outlook and had to install the 2003 version and hit compatibility issues. I am not that concerned. Between my IM, SMS, Yahoo email, voice mail, MySpace and cell phone I got plenty of ways to talk to my friends. Besides Word and Excel are what I really need for school work.
Ignore my cranky old man - he grumbles a lot. I am merely writing to ask for a huge favor. Can you please issue the refund usable at the Apple Store like Mr. Jobs did?
$ 100 in iTunes would really rock!
Yours sincerely,
Rita Mirchandani
Update: The $ 60 offer is only open to University students, not high school students. Dad will have to spring for that $ 100 iTunes bill -)
