Of course it does, which is why I am currently using Delphi on NT for doing the dynamic web content side of things (like dunamic graphs and table from Oracle data).

This means that I have at least a choice of web servers for doing this on NT (the platform chosen for this web system) and it allows me a bit more flexibility than ASP.

ASP or IIS are not bad per se - however, when someone walks down that road they should know that Microsoft is owner and paving the way. I prefer a more open approach which gives me the choice of what to drive and at what speed, on such a road.. ;-)
