What Do the Highest-Paid Programmers Make?

Dupe: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2592671

- Computer programmers -- $74,900 - Software developers, applications -- $90,410 - Software developers, systems software -- $97,960

The "computer programmer" / "software developer" differentiation, with the associated difference in status, always amuses me.

If you count programmers who're acqhired, the top end is easily around $5M/year.
