ColdFusion is certainly promoted on Adobe's website, and the link adobe.com/products clearly states ColdFusion 9 there. I am not sure why you think that they would not promote it on their own website, however nobody will disagree with you that Adobe should be doing more to market it better.

I did suggest to Adobe that giving away cfbuilder with CF or Creative Suite would be a good idea, it looks like they have listened as they are currently doing a promotion of CF Enterprise with 3 x cfbuilder. Sadly this is still missing the biggest target audience as most people will never be able

I LOVE ColdFusion! But.. I think that the code in asp.net is usually easier to look at than ColdFusion as with asp.net by default the user interface and the domain logic are separated. I know CF has MVC's that help with this, but I'm talking CF out of the box here. That's my 2 cents. :) Paul
