But let’s remember that computing used to be a hobby for most people and largely the domain of professional computer scientists. It was also a highly profitable, multi-billion dollar industry even back in the day. But once it became easy enough for regular people, personal computing exploded into a industry so large & worth so much you are probably reading this on a mobile computer in your hands. Don’t you wonder why it is that makeup hasn’t had this explosion? It is a big industry with a lot at stake, but largely serves very skilled women with a lot of time & often cash on their hands. It serves very skilled hobbyists & professionals. But shouldn’t it serve any woman so that say someone like me can use it with ease and joy?
