Hate to go completely off-topic here, but I think the pricing and
totaling of these figures says something completely else. Okay, so the
total was $8597 base investment for a 2 processor box right? Well the
question that we as developers and integrators should be asking is "What
is the return of this investment?" If the figures don't match up... get
out of it, don't get involved with such technology... personally I find
the money that our (and others') operation is making off of Macromedia's
technology to be completely justified. You can run a pretty bang-up
operation off of $9k+ and a 2 processor box if you have the right idea
(considering the scalability and performance of J2EE). Hell, I know of
some pretty sick operations that are running off of one box and CF5. The
right PROFITABLE idea, that is - a fault that too many in the .com
blowouts have been susceptible to - they don't/didn't have one.
