In my opinion it's the dabblers that fuel the bubble. If you just had these highly specialized "Professionals" who ran the business, the amount of money would drop dramatically, and it would be a lot harder to get your design. Whereas now, a small company can pay a high school student $100, cheap for the company and a lot for the student, and get a decent design. If there wasn't that opportunity then it would be alot harder for the smaller guys to get good designs, and therefore there would be none of that small money being tossed around. Yet that "small money" is far bigger than you think, i mean, just look at this forum.
