Beautifully stated.

I've often felt Starbucks should change their name to Sixbucks.
Once at Target & dying of thirst, I went to their Starbucks. For the money I shelled out, I expected gourmet but got nothing better than gas station coffee - except I paid about six times as much for the same ounces of coffee.
I live in a college town & I have yet to visit a B&N and not see darkly clothed "authors" in the coffee shop talking about their work & never typing it out.
Their laptops are always positioned so everyone can see they're working on something but the font is always too small to read what's actually written there.
