First of all I did not ask a comparison but thanks anyway. It would be
better if you can try Drupal and compare then because  I know you are
missing lots of parts in comparison and features of Drupal.

Anyway, what I want to focus is not the features. Usability and plug & play
abilities. I know that he never changed any piece of code in his Drupal
installation. What he did is just changing some CSS to have a same look.

When you also check modules and other features (may be not rich as in
Joomla/Mambo or Typo3) but there is no need to compare any CF based CMS
solution with one of these. CF solutions sucks because of lack of community
support!

Anyway, I am also developing CF applications and earn my money by developing
CF applications. But  when you think a professional company focusing on just
one solution such as CF is not always the best case. We are open for every
solution which would help for our goal.
