RE: [PHP] Re: PHP or ASP

I think Java is good for non-web applications but I absolutely HATE it on the web. It's incredibly slow. I'd suggest ASP over Servlets/JSP. I've written ASP hitting an Access DB that's faster than JSP or servlets hitting MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL, or Oracle. Not to mention it's a pain to write. For web applications, PHP is definetely the way to go if you have a choice in the matter.
