I agree, and don't be afraid to check them. If someone gives you a portfolio take the time to look at it, test it. If you are hiring an employee and they provide sample code then compile it and test it. I've been programming for a long time and there is no word I hate more than the word 'cheap'.... well, maybe the words 'segmentation fault' :-) both make the hairs on the back of my wallet stand up on end.

cheers
