Err... just curious but until you know what the new version is how do you you know you want to buy it?

I'd assume there's going to be another release and its cost will be around the same cost as the last two versions were. We know that Macromedia is working on a new version. (They always are - Microsoft is, everyone in the software business is) and the life cycle of most CF versions has been about a year in the past. There's no reason I know of to assume that's changed. I don't have any information from Macromedia, and I'm not in any beta programs, so I'm not talking from any inside knowledge here. (SO don't assume from this that I know the answer and I'm breaking the NDA). I think you're pretty safe if you do allow for a new version. Look at the possibilities: [a] you're right and there's a new version released during the year: Great. You have the budget for it and can upgrade right away. [b] you're wrong and there's no new release during the year: No problem, you don't lose anything and you have a little bit of spare budget you can use to soak up the excess somewhere else, or alternatively be a hero because you came in under budget for the year. [c] there is a new release, but it's priced higher than you budgeted for: You have budget for most of it, you only have to plead and beg for the additional, rather than for a whole amount. Which ever way, I think you're better off if you get it in the budget.

I can understanding not want to release dates but for people who are trying to do next years budget its means that they can not allow for it and thus will not purchase it in the 04/05 financial year.
