Abstract
"Many of today's successful publishers began as developers. How have 'Affiliated Publisher' programs made this easier? How can you learn instant accounting, instant typesetting, and instant marketing? Where does the money come from, and where does it go? Is it all really worth it?" —Description from Computer Game Developers' Conference 1989 program
