Hi Dave Two things I found very similar when developing in .NET as opposed to CF was the use of Master Pages they reminded me so much of the Fusebox approach and that class files are simpiliy CFC's.
..NET and CF8 Ajax are very similar. As Dale has noted its going to come down to how well structured the ..NET application is and how easy you can translate the workflow. I would agree with Dale's estimate. Good Luck with it bro. Let us all know how you get on.
