In other words, Everything is relative.
Along the same line of reasoning, just because a big company does it. It
does not mean it is a good thing. In my experience the exact opposite is
true. The bigger the company, the more ineffiecient in my experience.
Someone already said this, but I will repeat it. The big difference between
CF and ASP is development time and costs.
Almost any web application could be developed faster in CF than ASP, and CF
has a huge library of built in funtions and free tags that are available.
