As long as you're willing to learn, the basics of Linux (etc) are not actually

Hi Chris
I had a similar issue a while back and went down the C# route, I also
started a site which I have to admit I have let slip somewhat that compares
CF syntax to C#.net http://www.cfdot.net
Hope this helps.

Well, they're actually pretty similar, so I'm not sure either would be
easier or more natural than the other. If you use Java, that does have
direct relevance to CF

Although I wouldn't actually use "identical"; they're very similar but there
*are* differences.
