The reasons that I decided to turn to CF are:
1)While ASP is great for complex programming tasks, it is awkward and
unwieldy for simple tasks such as merely presenting data from a database.
2)Whilst considering CF, I also took a brief look at PHP3, although I
found that this would not be suitable for my needs, as its integration with
MySQL is too complex. I also primarily work on a Windows based platform and
therefore preferthe ODBC support offered by this system.
3)Finally, CF actually looks *fun* to use! It has a good structured
development environment (CF Studio) which is where ASP sorely falls short -
although there are rumours that MM Ultradev will go some way to resolving
this.

Hi Everyone
I'm new to this list and just thought I'd briefly introduce myself.
My name is Steve Minton and I am a Senior Web Designer/Developer, with
Development skills in ASP (3 years). However, I felt the time had come to
learn something new, and decided upon Cold Fusion.
You will therefore be hearing a lot from me over the coming weeks ;-).
Of course if anyone has any ASP queries then feel free to give me a shout.
Regards
Steve Minton
