Me! To be honest, the difference between $3,000/CPU and $3,750/CPU is pretty negligible in an enterprise world. For the - new-in-8 - (multi-)server monitoring and RDS/Admin user management features, unlimited CFTHREAD and unlimited MS Exchange integration, that extra $750/CPU is well worth it (as well as the general reasons Enterprise is worth paying more for: unlimited event gateways, PDF/document services, reporting etc). The key thing everyone should be rejoicing about is that Standard Edition includes: event gateways, pdf/document services, cfthread, MS Exchange integration, reporting, presentation generation. There would be a lot of complaints if these were Enterprise only features. There were plenty of complaints around CFMX 7 because event gateways were Enterprise-only! -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion 8 - Build next generation apps today, with easy PDF and Ajax features - download now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:284782 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
