          Having the users constantly thank you for your brilliance. That's #1 for me. *smiles* "Oh, just doing my job..!" #2 is having the right music while coding...

                  when after hours and hours of debugging you find the root of the bug in your code.

                    Clear requirements, sane deadlines, reliable hardware and software, a reasonably free hand to admin his own machine, and time-and-a-half for overtime.

                        It's sort of ambivalent feeling, because finding your bug usually shows you, how stupid were you while writing this particular piece of code. Unless it's a bug of someone else of course :).

                            yes, I think this is the final stage before moving to managerial and commercial stage :)

                                        Every moment of struggle against the challenge of understand customers, design, code, find bugs, limited budget, etc., etc., the result I care less than each of these delicious moments of hard battle.
