Those prices are pretty hefty in comparison to .NET. With .NET you need only one server too. I believe win2k is around $1100 and advanced at 3k. Makes me wonder if MM is trying to compete at all.

Stacy.. are we on the same page? I think MM should Bundle JRUN+CFMX and maybe get the Price Competitive...
