    It was a dense and difficult article to read, so it’s likely you missed the subject and the overall point that was being made. The article was not about how this woman should write a eulogy, or whether it’s preferred to write a eulogy using one of a variety of media, including a laptop, pen and paper, or dictation. Nor was it about why one may need to order a laptop even though one may already have access to the Internet and word processing software through other electronic devices. Rather, the article was about the laptop she ordered through Amazon being stolen by the person making the delivery. In other words, no matter what the reason was for buying the laptop, the laptop would have still been stolen. Does that help? I sure hope it does.

      Well said. Honest question: Did you really type this up on your first try? It takes me like six to eight edits to get anywhere near this level of eloquence.
