ASP.NET, how tough?

[Mike]

I'm totally new to the .NET platform and am a ASP 3.0 user. Could someone tell me how tough it is to learn ASP.NET and what are its core advantages.

Thanks in advance

I am a php coder and i've just started learning asp.net. i have to say its easier and more enjoyable to learn than PHP. (but i still like PHP more )
I dunno how difficult it will be on you, but these sites might help you:

VS.net is extremely nice, you should consider trying it.
