The Great Apple TV Giveaway
Winner Announced!
Congratulations to editcandy and to everyone who took the time to send an essay in. We had a great time reading everyone's entry and we appreciate all the great comments you sent in."I have this client. Rich. Nice. Great home. He's got all these great gadgets. Always something new. "Oh, I just got a new MacPro and a copy of FCS 2." Or "They just delivered my new Steadicam Jr.; let's go shoot something." It's not obnoxious because he actually uses the stuff - and arguably even needs it. And yeah, I'm jealous because I could arguably need it too but I get to play with great equipment without having to worry about money.
One day I come in and yes, there's a new pile of toys and in that pile is: "Wow, you decided to get an Apple TV." And though I'm eager to see it running we have work to do. And a week later: "Huh, you haven't set up the Apple TV yet." And a week after that: well, it would have been rude to comment on how it's still sitting unopened.I don't imagine that I'll ever be wealthy enough to buy stuff and let it sit fallow. Heck, I'm not even wealthy enough to purchase an Apple TV. But I really want to sit down and play with one. I'm craving it. It would make me happy."

Well, after all my blustering about not letting stuff sit fallow, I have to plead guilty. The Apple TV came yesterday and of course I wanted to rip open the package and get started. And of course I had other obligations. So I went out, did my stuff, tried to keep my mind off of my new toy and then at about midnight last night I finally got to start playing.
So it really didn't sit around for all that long but it felt like an eternity. I set it up. Played some Sonic Youth and The Clash and some old Muppets video clips. Finally my wife yelled at me to "turn off that noise" so I went to bed. This is going to be tons of fun. Oh, and that client I mentioned in my winning post? His Apple TV is still sitting on his desk unused (though it's now made its way out of the box). Thanks again. |

My name is Lauren. I think that I should win a new Apple T.V because i love the company. I am terrible with technology but can do just about anything with Apple products. I think that having an Apple T.V would also make my life less hectic. I am always doing homework or at a sport or busy in someway. Sometimes I just want to sit down and relax. An Apple T.V would be something big to look forward to after a hard week of work and playing sports. An Apple T.V would help my family as well as me. My sister has softball practices that go until 8:00 at night. She always misses the shows she likes to watch. With an Apple T.V she would be able to record the shows that she is missing and be able to watch them later. My parents both like to watch different shows, at different times. If we had an Apple T.V they cuold each enjoy the shows they want to see and there would be no arguring about the remote. I am graduating from 8th grade this year and I really wanted a new Apple laptop. I would much rather have the T.V after I read about it and saw all of the awsome things that it can do. The apple T.V seems like a huge boost is technology and I really think that me and my family could benifit from it. I would take super good care of the T.V and I would use it all the time. There are only two T.V's in our house and I think that having one in my room would be good for me and for my parents. I am always watching some kind of Pirates of the Caribbean thing on our T.V and they can never watch the news or a certain show. Please put this into consideration for an Apple T.V. If I was to win something as great as this I would be so greatful and I would use it with care and It would be the best T.V i have ever had.~Lauren
