ColdFusion MX
Adam Lehman put a comment over on the Alagad Blog that I thought was fantastic, and I hope he doesn't mind me reprinting it here. It's a great comment in a longish discussion.
"ColdFusion was the very first web application server on the market. Our community has been around since the dawn of the internet. We invented this game! ColdFusion developers defined the Rich Internet Application back in 2001 with ColdFusion MX and Flash Remoting. People thought we were crazy, flash wasn't for building applications, it was for stupid web cartoons and skip intros. Now, everyone and their mothers are pickung up Flex and sweating our style. The fact is, our community has been defining the web since it's inception and we continue to do so...[non CFers will eventually ask] how the heck did you build that? How did you integrate with all those aspects of the enterprise? How did you do it so damn fast?"
I think I'm going to memorize that.

1995 was a good year for web applications: ColdFusion 1.0, PHP-FI, and Zope were all born in the same year.
