Yeah, quantum is really, really disappointing.

I’ll do the Aptana developers the ultimate favor of just going away.

I purchase a lot of software, but Aptana doesn’t have a reasonable pricing structure for me. And after this debacle, I wouldn’t trust them very much.

I would pay money not to get jammed so hard as Aptana jammed everyone on the upgrade from 1.5 to 2.0.

It’s cost me hours.

Documentation all over the web refers to 1.5 or below.

I realize it’s free. I realize it’s caveat emptor.

Still, they could have made this so much better. It’s not that hard to communicate.

I find the new conventions for both PHP and mySQL to be tedious and faintly pompous. As a community, we’ve dealt with database CONNECTIONS for 30 years. Now we call them “bookmarks?” How arrogant.
