Just a couple of thoughts here:
1. Now() outputs the date, so ASP does have that.
2. I hate the concept of saying that one of these products is "superior" to
the other. Why not just lay out the technical points of both, and let the
reader decide. I'm okay with somebody choosing ASP (or PHP) a

--- START SAMPLE CODE ---
Function GetCurrentDate
' FormatDateTime formats Date in long date.
GetCurrentDate = FormatDateTime(Date, 1)
End Function
