Perhaps Adobe should consider a version which lacks advanced features to offer for free...that would give students something to play with, learn from, and grow comfortable with. And give small business (especially single developers) a start with the server, begin to make money, then invest in more advanced versions. I see software vendors doing this all the time.
Would this be something like Adobe's nee Macromedia's Free Developer edition? This is exactly how I got started with CF back in 1996/97 during the 4.5 days. And is the version I still do all my development in. And the developer version doesn't even lack advanced features, just lacks the ability to be run on a public server. But one can get CF hosting accounts for a very reasonable rate these days, albeit not free. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
