I've never had a reason to go to ASP.Net. I've seen it, played with it briefly, got bored, and went back to my asp/VB combo. I know it looks great, but ASP.Net uses a LOT of overhead that just gives me the willies. On a modern machine, it isn't noticeable, but I always strive to stay as lean and mean as possible. I have a questiona bout VS WD Express though....you say it is 'easy to use' Are we talking about easy for a developer, or easy for a user? I ask, because I don't really use FrontPage. I utilize the navigation, but I just write the HTML in MS Script Editor. But we use FP on our site, because we have people that update the content that are no where near 'web developers', and the fact that FP is pretty much a web working version of Word, makes it easy for them to do what they do. But if this WD Express is easier the FP for a user, I may have to look into it.
