Good points. The incredible over valuations and debt to be serviced meant that web infrastructure tools also climbed astronomically in price. What Macromedia want for their Web site design projects and even MS for Fornt Page is really quite ridiculous. We HAD to stick to simple free or low cost solutions and found in the end these were as useful or even better. We are in a part of the world where labour is cheap, but paying in US dollars for anything is crazy.

Hopefully one result of the fallpout will be more realistic pricing for infrastuructural software and the like will mecome more realistic.
