status of ASP .NET
I'm looking at C# and ASP .NET these days.
Visual Sudio 2005 looks like a neat dev. env. But before committing, I would like to know more about the current status of these tools. I noticed, that my site hoster does not support ASP at all. And more providers do not... PHP however, IS supported a lot, but does not have anything like .NET facilities, does it ? What is the status of the language wars these days ? ASP is still the way to go ? What is the market doing ? fr gr Erik

But ASP.NET (currently) only runs on windows servers (though there is work underway to allow .NET to work under *nix). Both technologies are very current. It also depends on what your background is, what you will be trying to achieve and where you will be wanting to achieve it. Note: You asked this question on an ASP Classic NG, so it's off-topic from the start. But it's also worth noting that asking the question in a PHP or ..NET NG is going to get you two polarised answers. PHP'ers are hardly going to advocate .NET, are they? Also asking what is 'best' is very subjective. Maybe you should decide what is important to you, and ask how these technologies meet those needs, and then *you* decide what is best for you. CJM

As gonna-be-philosopher, I have more questions than answers: 1: how do we know anything ? 2: is the difference relevant in this case ? 3: if it is, why would one kind be preferable above the other ? 4: what would the object be here ? >>> PHP'ers are hardly going Indeed it is not me, but I do exist both as an individual and as a>>>to advocate .NET, are they?

In that last capacity, I cannot ignore the direction "the world" is taking, because of the risk of solipsism. I'm currently working on a paper on decision-making in organizations. Much is wrritten on this subject. Many BIG, multi-billion-euro decisions are made not on the basis of "objective arguments", but on intuition, subjectivity, (educated) guesswork even (eg. read Mintzberg, Herbert Simon). Which , for a mechanical/software engineer as myself, is quite an eye-opener. "CJM" wrote ...
