Interesting blend of comments regarding this issue. I would have assumed that the 37signals crowd was strictlythe entrepreneurial omni person type. Thos who choose to have control and do everything... interface design, coding, marketing. Typically this gets you a mediocre product that is of limited use. But there were also people that get why there are professional with vertical expertise that specialize. I did expect some neanderthal coders - those that believe design is purely visual... again, an interesting mix of comments.
