Multi-classing penalty, of course, applies. BUT there are classes that are multi-skillful by itself. And you can be excellent in those, even if they fall behind in any particular skill behind the more focused ones. That being said, I've always played rogue or bard. :{-

Hehe, I suppose that someone who's mastered the art of design is called a White(space) Knight. And someone who's mastered programming is called an Internet Sorcerer.

Bot of these comments are excellent, I love the comparison to multi-classing. I think it really hits the point.

Yes, it's been well discussed in long sleepless nights, as any D&D subject. :D
