If this actually happened, I suspect that the product would be divested or discontinued. But I really doubt that this will happen. The only thing that Adobe has that MS doesn't is the design tools market. There isn't much history of MS buying established competitors to their own products. And speaking of established competitors, during the existence of CF, Microsoft has gone through at least four different competing products: they had a couple of things before ASP (IDC and HTX I think), then there was ASP, then ASP.NET. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:337969 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
