Well to counter the argument about clients not wanting to pay for the server for intranet applications:
If a client won't pay a few grand for a server, then usually the job is not worth my time. Additionally, these are the clients who will ask for the moon, then come back and say "oh, I have to pay for this?" Basically these are the clients I steer clear of in the interest of preventing a stroke by 25.

Yes, I want to better the ColdFusion community, the only problem I've always ran into is that customers in some cases don't want to spend money on a license for the server because all they want is an intranet application to keep track of employee records. So this would be the perfect solution as you could create the program, make it run stand-alone. The entire point of this application is to make ColdFusion bigger and stronger... that is what I always have in mind when i make my CF products/services (CFM-Resources.Com, EasyCFM.Com, Visual Fusion, etc...)
