Enterprise version might still be a hard sell for me despite the £1k
price-drop. However the free staging license is a big bonus
The cloud-hosting faq is a bit unclear:
"ColdFusion 9 introduces instance-based licensing which allows you to
install ColdFusion 9 in the cloud environment of your choice. With Standard
edition you can install one cloud instance in addition to your 2 CPUS and
with Enterprise edition you can install a maximum of 10 concurrent instances
in addition to your 2 CPUs."
Does this mean I could buy one standard license, run it on a cloud instance,
and run a separate dedicated 2cpu server at the same time?

I think someone summed it up quite nicely as more like a 50% price drop, because you no longer have to purchase multiple licenses in order to deploy ColdFusion to a Staging server.
Plus as of ColdFusion 8 you can deploy a "hot spare" on the same license as your production server.
So you're talking about 3 server installations for the price of one. Seems like a bargain to me.

Oh and you get to use the full extJS 3 library without having to purchase licenses, which run from $329 to $16,500. Obviously there is only update support via ColdFusion updates, but still.. more money you're saving by purchasing a £1000 standard license or a £4200 enterprise license.
