Right now I'm working in a with asp classic, mostly due to the fact that my boss (who would need a lot of convincing to learn another prog. language) wants to be able to understand/edit/troubleshoot any code I make, along with other reasons.
For my own purposes, and a few frustrations with asp classic, I've been wondering if it'd be worth it to me to go ahead and learn it, then see if I can present the benefits to my boss with first-hand experience in it.
Anyway, questions are, is there anyone who has made the switch? Is it worthwhile? And how true is the backwards compatibility factor?, can I pretty much just copy over all the existing code and have it running with minimal changes?
This is an asp vs asp.net question, so don't bother with a php (or other AST) conversion suggestion, it won't happen.
