Marketing is misleading ... Have you ever heard Microsoft stating in their TV commercials they make software that might fail?
In general they say, bigger, better, faster, so I should then assume it should never crash. Just a stupid comparison but I am trying to say, to prevent overreacting to statements made. I think everybody has enough brain threads open to process a "marketing" poster.

Stating myspace is on BD, implies that all of it is, or even at the very least, most of it is. But the truth is that most of myspace is on CF5. Thus the appearance of being misleading in the marketing speak. And actually, this list also takes MM to task for such things as well from my memory. - Calvin -----Original Message----- From: Micha Schopman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 8:44 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: bg & myspace What's wrong with that statement? They do run BlueDragon, and I never see them mentioning that the entire server park runs BlueDragon. They only say, MySpace runs BlueDragon. Just a matter of marketing. People seem to handle the same type of Macromedia marketing talk very well, why is that different with New Atlanta.
