> So what does the $5000 software do? That's a silly question. If you want to quickly write presentation logic, CF MX is the right tool for the job. If you want to do something else, use the appropriate tool for that job.

For business logic or data manipulation, that's a good idea. For presentation logic, it's a lot less important. And it's hardly free - you need Windows (I'll skip Mono for this discussion). > So whats your argument to your CLIENT for using CFMX > just "RAD"? Yes, "just" RAD. Just lower development costs, and lower maintenance costs, and faster time-to-market. Nothing really important, just those things. But, no, you're right - you've convinced me to do everything in assembly.
