One of the main benefits that I think ColdFusion has over .NET is the fact that it is a Macromedia product.
Macromedia is (for now) the undisputed king of Rich Internet Applications. With Flex and Flash defining the landscape of this part of the internet, having a backend that is almost seamlessly integrated with these two technologies is extremely useful. As Flex matures, I think that many of its most powerful features will leverage ColdFusion. It will be ColdFusion helping to power many of Macromedia's RIAs in the future, so it makes sense to add that as a plus to the CF side. -Ryan http://www.digitalbackcountry.com -----Original Message----- From: Ian Skinner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 2:26 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Not to start a flame war..... I would like as civilized discussion on the differences between .NET and ColdFusion MX7 Enterprise. I know all the arguments of free vs. licensing, ease of language, ect and I am not looking to rehash those. I would like a break down of features one has and the other doesn't, such as verity in ColdFusion. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
