I went over my prior email pretty thoroughly, and couldn't find "trust
Allaire" anywhere in it. Whew. Nor did I say that they knew what they're
doing when it comes to shared hosting. To the best of my knowledge, they
don't do much hosting at Allaire, and not so much CF development either.
What I did say was, that like any other vendor, if they add stuff to their
product and they think that stuff makes the product worth more, they're
probably going to feel entitled to raise the price of their product. Anyone
surprised by that?

That's funny. Everyone here (myself included I guess) seems to think that
they know how to run the CF business. This keen business insight mostly
sounds like "don't raise my prices!"
Just like with a new car, though, caveat emptor. You always have the choice
not to buy.
