I need some concise, easy to grok examples of what .Net (preferably
C#.Net) has over just using old ASP or PHP with JavaScript.
See, I'm a PHP guy, and while I started server-side scripting with ASP,
I hate it. But last year I had the opportunity to work with a company
that was developing sites in VB.Net. And I was wowed! The stuff they
could do was really nice and impressive, and I got the chance to learn
a little about datagrids. Was impressed.
Now a year later working exclusively on a Linux server, I've found that
everything that wowed me I could emulated in PHP with JavaScript.
But I really want to start HAVING to learn C#.Net because all around me
I see ".Net is the way of the future!" So, to get my boss to consider
implimenting Mono or some other .Net platform on our Linux server, I
need to justify why. And to solve my own doubts about the necessity of
..Net.
So, could I get some examples of what unique benefits .Net has over PHP
(or even ASP) and JavaScript?
I suppose quick and easy datagrids can be the first item. But what
else?
Thanks!

PS: Being a PHP guy, I understand C# is not to hard to pick up?
Especially over VB.Net?
