Developers are in it for the love and not the money. $100k was an estimate given by a couple of developers on Beyond3d.com and that was backed up by the recent EA press releases regarding their layoffs. I divided the $ value they said they would save by $100k and it matched the number of employees they were shedding closely.

We are using the same number. ~100k for unloaded FTEs (i.e. salary, taxes, bennies, and stuff). However, it would be at least 50% more fully loaded, so 150K fully loaded, which is the number I was using. Fully loaded is things like computers, office space, software licenses, management overhead, infrastructure, etc.
