As my only professional coding experience has been with embedded 8 bit 
processors with limited resources i naturally abhorrent to the process of 
"Just throw more RAM (Or any other resource for that matter)at it".

It is my personal opinion that the quality of code has diminished 
steadily as physical limitations on the programmer have been reduced, of 
course I could be wrong so I would like to here other peoples views on 
this.
