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.
