I can say also as a senior engineer, I would never turn down another o ly because of this. It's not my software I'm making, it's the company. It's not my things. If they want me to code on a pentium 3 I'll happily do it, it's their money. They want me to waste it on that, that's on them.

Yea, but some of us would rather choose to enjoy the work. Paycheck and pleasure doing the job is where it's at.
