I was disappointed too when the first item I saw required you to own something I don't have I figured then that most of the rest of them would be the same way as well. So what? In the great scheme of things it's hardly worth getting upset about. People can come here and air their discontent but jeez a little perspective maybe. I hate to use the old clichbut people really are starving and dying and dealing with real problems every day. The incredibly wealthy and privileged (compared to most of the world) complaining because some useless free computer fluff wasn't free enough? It's not as if no one else were giving away gifts on top of the free thing people give away the other 50 week a year. I'm sorry. I respect your right to complain but I really don't understand.
