I am still aghast at how anyone can say Eclipse is hard/complicated to use ?
It's just an editor in all reality.

Is it the wealth of extra options etc? Is it using outside of a comfort
zone?

That's nice if it's what your system uses...the sticks my Dell Dimension
uses are ridiculously expensive...Dell charges $400 for a 512MB stick making
it a total of $1600 for me to upgrade to a 2 gig system. Lowest price from
other vendors is still almost $300. So just not a feasible solution for me,
will need to wait until I can just upgrade my entire system. 

Regardless I agree with those that prefer CFStudio (Homesite) to CFEclipse.
I generally only fire up Eclipse if I need to use FusionDebug and while I've
tried using it exclusively, I still find myself coming back to CFStudio. I
don't think anyone here will convince us Homesite lovers that CFEclipse is
better...Studio is just so elegant, easy to use without a big learning curve
and has so many little touches that just make my coding easier and quicker.
I can fire it up at a moment's notice for quick edits and it doesn't bog
down my system. I really would love to see Adobe rescue it from oblivion. It
doesn't quite make sense to me that one of the biggest draws for ColdFusion
is how easy it is for newbies to learn...and yet we're expecting them to
figure out something as complicated as Eclipse to use as their IDE.
