As far as MSFT is concerned, this is no bad thing.  It makes it
perfectly natural for them to encourage an upgrade some time soon. 
(Probably to ASP.NET).

That does three things:

1.  Allows people to continue to sell services about understanding ASP

2.  Leads to deployment of *two* MSFT technologies

3.  Promotes MSFT technologies twice, while not selling Linux once

These are all *wins* as far as MSFT is concerned.
