What a lame-brained analogy. Todd, there is a VAST difference between
a browser (i.e. CLIENT) and a SERVER. CF is a server, one upon which large,
complex, business systems are built. Companies who want to compete
in that arena don't just abandon support of earlier releases.

(Note: Microsoft still patches older releases of SQL Server.)

Ah yes... the 'We're no worse than anyone else' argument.

What cracks me up is that you haven't seemed to figure out that an
upgrade is a business...not a loyalty to Macromedia...decision.
