And a (paid!) membership in Apple's developer program. And, and, and. That's the wall she needs to scale here -- not merely, "How do I ... "

How many people does that wall turn away, who might otherwise have discovered a new passion or talent?

What incredible ways might they have changed the world, if only they'd had the opportunity to discover that they could?
