Are you talking about a ported Free Developer version (for a 
conveniencefee)?

Are you talking about a Full Enterprise version with interface to a 
real web server such as Apache.

If you could do the former, you could charge a convenience charge-- the 
user would save hours of time ($nn),  avoid purchasing Virtual PC 
($90), Red Hat 7.2 ($40)... so there is a price point that Developers 
would (probably) be willing to accept -- especially if you provide some 
assistance (not full support).

If you could do the latter, I imagine you could do it with a smaller 
investment than that required by Macromedia.  Here, you could charge 
more (and provide more support).

If you, or someone, can legally do either or both, and make a profit -- 
I am all for it! -- I'll help in any way I can!

Who knows, at least it would move the ball in the right direction!
