Subject: Re: why I love coldfusion...and not .net

VB6 was where I came from...I loved the language and the IDE.  However when
I first encountered CF, i realized I could do everything I wanted to do as
far as web development faster, easier and have a lot more fun with CF than I
ever could with VB.  I have not had a chance to take a close look at
asp.net, but all I can say is if you can actually debug it now it's a big
improvement.  I would jump on the asp.net wagon if I had the time or the
training budget allowed to me :-)  But CF will always be first in my book
for quick and dirty RAD web projects.  When I start having to do some major
integration with some of the other systems, I will be looking at asp...but
only where it's needed.
