I have read an article which is actually about the ever popular debate on PHP versus .NET issue. It was actually written by a guy who said that his purpose for writing the article is to help PHP developers who are being harassed by over-exuberant .NET fanatics, have a sort of “self-defense”.

I developed the website using ASP.NET technology but immediately after showing him the homepage design of his website, told me to use MySQL for the database. Although it is not the popular choice for an ASP.NET application database, he opted to use MySQL probably because of its low cost in terms of hosting fees. Besides, there is no great deal in granting his request because in .NET, connecting to a MySQL database is as easy as 123. (more…)
