ASP.NET (and the whole .NET caboodle) have a lot going for it. It has arguably the most productive development environment going, Visual Studio.NET, excellent debugging facilities and an extensive and largely well designed class library.
However, it has one major stumbling block: it only runs on Windows.
Anyone who runs something as tempting to the script kiddies as a porn site on a Windows box that you know is going to be rooted by this week's IIS exploit du jour frankly needs their head examining.
.NET is perhaps the best way to write windows apps available right now.
For websites, I'll stick to Linux/Unix and PHP, at least I have a lot more control.
