This is really sad.

I saw a off site PDF was the top result of my book.

So I gave up and gave the book away for free.

Guess I'll be charging money now.

This was my first thought. But I can imagine that even having an art degree would give you confidence.

(assuming Maslow's)

Is the issue that (white) people are getting past love and belonging, and getting stuck at Esteem?

Where people with degrees can work past this point? A restaurant worker will not be able to create a reputation/make a difference on the scale of a well paid or educated worker. Even if it's not the education that makes the difference, confidence is huge.

I can't even imagine buying a computer for a trackpad.

All my years of StarCraft have me a wiz at mouse and keyboard. Plus I doc to 3 screens.

Onthego, I have touch screen which I use surprisingly often.

This is why I can't understand the appeal of a MacBook. You have the Apple burden, the Apple costs, what benefits? The touchpad? The showoff luxury of a lighted logo?
