I still think it's a low entry point. $500 is less than you would pay for
one full copy of Studio and one full copy of Server.
And I really really really don't want every developer on the planet listed
on Allaire's site. Paying $500 does weed out some of the bozos who just
picked up CF, and really shouldn't be promoting themselves as developers
yet...
Bring on the flames, but that's how I feel..
