let's face it, mappers and modelers are a dime a dozen compared to coders. no coder, no mod. thus, they are still the highest on the totem pole generally.

When you said "old computer magazines" I was expecting old by a bit more than the year, year and a half old that those can be. I mean: NS, Trillian, 20 Gb hd's. I was expecting some DOS stuff, or perhaps EGA monitors or something nifty like that.
