Nice. So ColdFusion developers asked Adobe for YEARS to make their own CFML editor and they do - and they dare to charge $$ for it and now they are "soaking their customers" to be billionaires. Wow. I know I'm the resident Adobe fan boy here but this is completely out of line. Adobe is a business. They _have_ to make money. Period. It's a fact of life. If you think they are going to become billionaires by selling 300 dollar licenses then you are grossly misinformed. If I did my math right, Adobe would have to sell 3.3 million copies of CFB. > Time to learn PHP, I guess. If you feel that charging money for a product equates evil, then perhaps you should. Is ColdFusion worth _anything_ to you? Do you not make money writing code? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:341457 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
