He also had Samuel L Jackson.
Arnold was an engineer, though. He was competent in using the system and not totally lost when poking around the code, but he's no computer scientist. Basically, he was a power user / sysadmin rather than a developer.
Stares motherfuckerly at you…
I understand your opinion of sysadmins but they still fit the definition of an IT guy
I'm pretty sure Nedry was the engineer. Arnold was systems administrator / operator. Neither were computer scientists.
Nedry was literally a computer scientist and systems designer / programmer from Cambridge. Arnold was a theme park engineer (designing rides and control systems; some programming involved but a whole different paradigm than developing large systems).
