The bottom line is that if the extra $1500 breaks you and stops you from buying CF8 Enterprise, you were not a target customer for CF8 Enterprise. The vast majority of customers buying the Enterprise version will turn around and buy CF8 Enterprise because $1500 is nothing in an IT budget. For people who can't afford $7500, there is the Standard version.
