Works great, is fast, very easy to use, works on all platforms as well. Plus the one big factor that a lot of people might forget is that RIA is the next big thing. So with Flex (also from Adobe) which integrates very nicely with ColdFusion you got one of the best "basement" tools right at your hands. Just my two cents....
