Actually, there is considerable evidence that musicians/music majors make great programming staff. In fact, Systematics, the large bank software company, used to consider musicianship a job preference for development staff.

Bentway's story could be accounted for in any number of ways. For example, if this guy came in with his object-oriented concepts and none of the programmers knew about OO programming, they would be totally confused and unproductive. As CJ mentioned, it takes a good year for programmers to get up to speed in transitioning.

But given a properly trained staff, most substantial projects will benefit from OO design. But you have to put in a lot more time up front to develop a strong object hierarchy and the actual coding takes far less time.
