Agreed. Very cool indeed!! If we as developers had a solution to offer our clients that wanted to host their own sites versus using a hosting company, I think we would double or triple our income. One of the major draw backs to Coldfusion is in it's cost. I cannot count the times that I have lost a deal due to the fact that the client wanted to host themselves but did not want to spend thousands of dollars on a few versions of CF. If Smith does truly take-off and becomes what Macromedia product is, I think the coldfusion community could actually have a foot race with php/asp guys out there. Right now they are winning the race and we are just getting out of the gate and only due to cost.
