Show me a grid control as good as

how about data base modeling like http://download.deklarit.com/files/A...BModeling.html , how about http://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax.aspx

If some one asks me to develop a large scale distributed app that will run on a 100 cluster box then I will say go and find a Unix guy but 99% of the work that is out their is not like this.

RAD < Scalability
RAD < Stability
RAD <> ROI

Most of the good PHP developers that I know have developed their own library of classes or function libraries and can develop most applications pretty quickly... but I digress. You can list how many adult companies run ASP on your fingers... and for good reason. The cost greatly outweighs the possible extra time investment. Show me an app that you think that you believe can't be developed as quickly in a LAMP environment as could be developed using a Microsoft solution. I know what I am talking about because I started my career developing Microsoft solutions and have kept up with the gist of it. If you want to talk about desktop apps... I will agree that Microsoft has the best developer tools... but we are talking about web based solutions and not desktop solutions.
