Actually, YES. I have no need, desire, or willingness to have software I'll never use on my computer. If it's tied together at the back end, then it's potentially going to have install,upgrade, and bug implications as well. Unbundled, stand-alone. Bundling and tying it in is what Microsoft has been doing since day one, and I've always disagreed with it, though I've adapted because it's the Operating system. Until MM unbundles HomeSite, I'll stay with my OLD stand-alone version, and not shell out any more money. Lost revenue to Macromedia, yet their own staff frankly admits that the CF community is by far a TINY fraction of their income base, so they really have no motive from their view to ever consider doing that which is purely in favor of the CF community in anything other than CF itself. SO - Why not bundle HomeSite with CF instead? Bet they never considered it! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Your ad could be here.
