3:25 PM EST 		I'm guessing about 1/4 to 1/3 of the active membership of PLUG are IT "professionals" of some kind, including wage slaves and students who consult on the side.

We also have a handful of people who contribute extensively to FOSS projects (hi, Bernard!), although we don't really compete with the likes of CLUG (Canberra -- hi, both Andrews!). The rest of our merry band are complete IT amateurs, ranging from Joe Random to the proprietors of businesses in the hundred-employee range. Don't know if that's typical worldwide, or not.
