The data centers running Microsoft OSs look at ColdFusion as an outlier that is expensive to purchase and maintain. To them, it does nothing more than .NET. Many of the CIOs are under pressure from the suits to cut costs so something as expensive as ColdFusion is an easy target. Add in the extra sysadmin costs that are different than MS and you get the obvious reaction. I don't know much about LAMP shops so I won't speculate how they might react; however, the people I know from the open source community are not so keen on Adobe. It is the developer that likes ColdFusion, not so much the data center folks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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:358013 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
