My 2 Cents > ASP is a Platform that supports a number of different
microsoft languages which includes ASP Javascript, ASP VBScript,
ASP.Net C# & ASP.Net VB ... ASP has a couple of good points to it...
most notably is that it is backed by the largest computer company out
there.. Microsoft... also, from my experience as a college level
instructor, they teach microsoft programming languages at the
colleges... there is nothing spectacular about the programming
languages that ASP supports that cannot be done with PHP... and I
should say that that is my opinion...

I know Yahoo & Google use PHP in some of their applications... also
Lufthansa (Airline) uses PHP... Vonage... Broadvoice.. the list goes
on...

Here is a few articles for you :
