People in high tech take pride in their work.
They are individuals who see the details of the things they produce
in the light of the trials and triumphs they experience while creating products.
In the courage of creation, they find a place to hang their individuality.
Programmers and techno types appreciate elegant,
spare code and the occasional well-turned architectural hack.
