Concerning money most of us have bought at least one version
of Civilization. Also, go to the metaserver list and see how many people
play Freeciv. It's a very small number. One can have the feeling there
are more coders than players. Concerning Opensource, it's an oportunity
to learn  new skills : cvs (gnu tools), mailing lists,
keeping people in synchronization, preventing sources to become a
nigthmare ... Visibly, you have created a new domain called
www.3dProgrammer.com. It's brand new ( It's empty. ) So, you are
interested in 3d. Good ! Try to find an opensource project corresponding
to your skills.
