What does that have to do with it? That's a pretty lame excuse. I could say "why should you charge for a website when Microsoft or Apache built the web server your site runs on?"

The issue is that it is a plugin, not a full IDE...Eclipse already provides the IDE and that is free. If this was a package that they developed on there own like DW...then that would be different. Even so, they should be encouraging developers, since we are the ones doing their marketing work for them so that we will encourage our employers and clients to use CF.

Even if they gave it away it's still pretty much useless for my workflow. I need a lightweight editor which has some basic knowledge of ColdFusion and can open/edit/save files anywhere, not a full-blown IDE with integrated debugging support and a lock-in to their project model. If I ever have a need for a full-on IDE then I would say $299 isn't so bad, but as it stands Adobe has made CF Builder pretty much impossible for me to use. -Justin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
