    The most overpriced piece of software that you regret buying?

    So let's hear it, what software package did you blow the most money on that you REGRETTED spending after a while?

    What was it and how much did you pay?

                some webcam software from bluewire for $20k would have probably been the worst or one of the OLDER versions of MPA

                  I got Cold Fusion 6 or 7 years ago. I don't remember exactly what I paid for it, but it was more than several hundred dollars. I fucked around with it one day.

                    In the adult biz - bought a large number of progs related to this industry or re SEO blah - and doubt any of them were used for more than a week while testing/playing with them. Highest price - dunno, but prob around $300 ish.

                    It's prob not fair to say they they were useless or regretted buying. The better elements/features were noted and coded into our own software - so call it "research".

                    Prior to that time, and decades earlier - spent $14K on software for a crappy OS (before PC's were on the market) and that lasted at most a year before dumping it. That was regretted and a total waste of time and money.

                            myspace uses ASP.NET...they haven't used cold fusion for a couple of years now.

                                        Really?
                                        Shows how much attention I pay.

                                        More I did, seems they keep the .cfm urls for legacy reasons, and BlueDragon to parse the CFML to ASP.

                                        Still, CF/Adobe would *have been* rubbing their hands together :D

                                                    I bought a java chat server and client w/ customization many years back and that set me back a few thousand bucks. At the time I had a relatively large chat site that was running a poorly written perl script. My users HATED the java chat client and promptly left my site as soon as I implemented it.

                                                    I ended up rewriting the perl chat program to use mod_perl to speed things up yet keep the same functionality that my users loved. The java chat system was in use less than a week.
                                                    I like pie.

                                                      Always ask for a demo version first, and you will have less/no regret.
