[/quote] Well, Mike that depends on who you are talking to. (Personally, I like CFCs and I think they are really great.) But when CF start coming out, it boasts as (and it is true) simple yet powerful server side language. With a line or two in CF can accomplish the same thing with more lines of codes in other programming language (like Java for example). Anyway, that was the reason I started learning CF in CF 4 days. But with CFCs and OO introduced into CF, CF is starting to sound like Java (more like J2EE actually). And people who shams from OO languages because of their complexity choose ColdFusion in the first place, but not they face the somewhat similar complexities that is introduced into CF. That confuses a lot of old-timers of CF. In a way, there will always be push and pull with OO paradigm. Who wins and who lose, only time will tell I guess. Meanwhile, I think we mere mortal developers have to choose what is the best for our own situation.

CFCs are simply magic. Whoever thought of them deserves a nobel prize. CFMX is a whole 'nother world of excitement and thrills. Well ok . ..maybe it's not exactly Disney World but it's a lot better than the older versions. I had to do a job on CF5 not so long ago and there were SO many things I missed that have become second nature to me now.
