Mmmmm. So how exactly does one afford the best tools when they don't have the dollars? Easy to say when you got a job. You say people at Adobe have to eat, but most people at Adobe also make 60-80000 easily.
And if your a developer the educational use is of no real benefit because if I remember that was only for college students. I am surprised that nobody has really tried to say why cf builder is so good likes it features. in other words, nobody has really provided a good reason as to why should I invest in it.
