the most asinine thing was the prof was at SFCC the community college. It wasn''t specialized PHD level work for a lot of articles to do something pioneering. Just some guy that had a hard on for princeton hall, and hasn't spent a day of his life in actually business management. The prof that was doing photoshop, on the other hand, did graphics and photography for a living and had a 20 dollar book for basicaly "don't panic if you mess up, here''s some ideas on how to, un-messsup" I had no issue with a 20 dollar book. 700 dollar one? not happening. Ever.
