I agree.

Any "sysadmin" who whines about having to edit .conf files deserves to be fired.

I'm half of 2 person IT department...don't necessarily have 100% to give to keeping up with patches and MS Critical Updates

Are you Serious? How fucking difficult is it to to Start => Windows Update => Product Updates => Start Download.

We run 5 public web servers here, and when I get the Microsoft Security Update e-mail, I run windows update, schedule a reboot for 3am the next day and jobs done!

I'm not quite sure what this means, but essentially, if your app uses ASP that does more then the simple "Connect to ADO, grab data, and loop over it", then ChiliSoft is not a good solution for serious apps.

I think you can be more general here. Try "If your app does more than the simple 'Connect to ADO, grab data, and loop over it,' then ASP is not a good solution."
