I agree whole-heartedly.

>How do companies like lets say Origin stand this ??  
Origin started out as a one-man company that made it's own games, selling
Basic programs on a 5 1/4 inch floppies in Ziploc bags.

Who says the lone programmer can't survive?

While we're on the subject of game publishing,...
What would the interest level be in creating a Game's archive of games
created with DJGPP?  It would be distributed in bulk on CD, with each
programmer contributing a portion of the costs.  If we get enough people
in on it (Let's say each game is 5-25 megs, that's 25-100 games per CD
easy) the costs wouldn't be quite so scary.
Any thoughts???
