A couple of things about ASP .NET. One is that it is still pretty new compared to PHP. So we'll see in the long run. Also ASP .NET is not a language but an under laying system. If you want to program using ASP .NET you have a choice of languages. In fact you can create a class in one language (say VB .NET) and use it to write a program in C++ or C# or J# or one of I think 15 other languages. So comparing it to PHP is not quite apples and apples.

Also the company that makes ASP .NET is a big sponsor of FIRST. It seems to me there was a Microsoft logo on display at every FIRST event. So they can't be all bad can they?
