I started to talk to our higher ups about getting an Enterprise edition of 
CF8, and then I looked at the price.

    We've got CF, PHP, and .NET developers here and now I've been trumped 
because of the price of CF8....they'll never go for a application server 
that costs almost 8k.

Anyone else finding that they can't compete in such a competitive 
development market with a price tag like that or is it just us?

The new features rock no doubt, but telling a manager that they have to pay 
that much, they simply laughed in my face.  Now I have to go and face the 
other developers knowing full well that they now have the upper hand with 
the management because it "costs" them less.  And sure, you can talk all you 
want to about faster development and better security blah blah blah, but a 
manager isn't going to buy it because the price is too steep.
