    Visual Studio 2005

    Beta 2 just released a week ago.

    Don't want to try it myself as Microsoft doesn't recommend ASP 1.1 and 2 on the same machine, but I am drooling at the new features.

    Anyone here taken the plunge??
    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

        fair point - the html generation engine in VS is the same as FrontPage and therefore total dogshit. But the programming side absolutely rocks

            Is it on PHP's level when it comes to speed and stability?

              Speed yes (although I don't know this for sure as benchmarks are very unreliable in Beta), stability almost certainly not, but I can't really see the problem on that as it is still a very marginal downtime (really from the instability of the windows OS). I run a few ASP.NET sites and have had a few hours down in the year on a budget host.

              It is really on the productivity that the model comes into its own. Example, programming an XML webservice took about 2 hours (including debugging) with no prior knowledge of webservices.

                In my experience, .NET has been faster and about just as reliable as PHP
