1. gui development, just drag and drop. You still hand code, but not anywhere as much as you think. And the reusability of the components you develop really saves time. Now, I know we have dreamweaver, custom tags, and cfx and the like, but they are no where near the reusability of managed code and components.
2. true oo. While fusebox and the like have made a good effort to get the procedural language that is cf there, it's just not an oo language. Now, I'm just getting into oo, with a couple 3 college classes and the recent .net training, but I can really see how much easier it makes everything. All of the things I was trying to get cf to do with workarounds and frameworks and the like, adding extra run time to the request, works out of the box with .net.
of course, before I get burned at the stake here, as always, this is MHO. :P

I do not agree. I have seen applications done in ASP or others just as fast
as with CF and now with .NET even faster. So if you know you can design the
application in ASP in the same amount of time you could do it in CF then the
client would most likely pick the path that does not include the purchase of
server software.
This is the job of the PM to sit down with the developers and work out if
the job should be done in whatever language is best suited for the project.
So it can go both ways
