Subject: CF vs. .NET presentations?
Hi,
Have any of you done a presentation to justify using CF over .NET? A
friend of mine just got a big contract, but the owner wants it to be
done in .NET. My friend is trying to convince him to let him do it in
CF
not much harder then doing it in ASP. CF just gives you more
options.

I imagine it will be the same with ASP
(but I'm sure I can find a way around

Dave, I've always stood by that ASP.NET without Visual Studio is lacking. VS

Well you would seriously struggle to develop in .NET without it.

I'm not sure if it's even possible. Doesn't .NET compile
components to dll's? You can do that from notepad. At the
minimum you would need some kind of JDK.
The .NET Framework SDK includes a compiler, and it's available as a free
download. In addition, there are several useful tools other
of JDK.

What I mean by integrate is more-so an extending. Without
knowing Java, can you handle that with ease (being the key
part)? Also, can a non-advanced user do it? (another key part)
No, probably not. However, learning CF and Java seems to be about the same
