wouldnt using the words "safety" and "microsoft" in the same sentence and have a direct meaning to one another be slanderous statement? makes me wanna barfffffff
thats funny, the perception that is. and thats the exact route i would take to fight it. running it on a windows server pretty much puts a target on your back, wouldnt it be "safer" to run cfm on a linux server? Not to mention their constant "updating" woes. and then before u mentioned something about not knowing if what ur proposing will even be around in a few yrs. u mean like m$ did with asp? and im sure will do again with .net coldfusion was here before asp (if i recall correctly) and it still here now & it will be here tomorrow, i wouldnt put a mexican peso on .net out living cfm. im sure the next version will be called ".shortNet" haha ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Micha Schopman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2004 14:45:49 +0100 >I'll post the results here once we're done.
