30 days is not enough to truly learn something. I can install PHP,ASP,or JSP for free and truly learn them.
I can install the trial and only get to use it for 30days and most likely m ost people would not get to use it for all 30 days. Don't get me wrong, I love CF and that is what I use the most but because it is not free it will always be harder to justify using it. The cost of CF is what is keeping the company I work for from upgrading. that is my 2cents.

Long live Cold Fusion. One thing that I think Macromedia should do is to make a version for learning that is either given away or sold for $99. This should be a version that will have restrictions on the ability to do create web applications that could be used on the internet. Such a program would only be usable for learning. It would not have a time limitation and would offer all of the tags and etc.. The program would have use limitations so that people won't use it to produce real world internet pages and applications. Restricted capabilities is not the way to go if they block the ability to learn. It should be possible to restrict the use of the developed programs to just the computer that the learning edition is installed on and by using the training program. The more people who can afford to get a learning copy of the program and a good book such as WACK by Ben Forta would mean more sales later on. ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
