The Mono project is very interesting and has tremendous potential. Unfortunately it's not viable for regular web hosting on Unix, because it's missing MSSQL. ASP.NET developers develop their ASPX applications with MSSQL for the majority, and if you want to offer MSSQL, you need a Windows Server, in the end you're better off using ASPX on a Windows server in this case.
Creating a free implementation of MSSQL for Unix would set the industry free from Microsoft, and web hosting companies could offer full-featured Windows hosting using just free software, and at the same price as LAMP hosting.
