"Perfect for simply getting things done in a business context when things like price and portability are not a concern. (When they ARE a concern, then by all means use the LAMP stack and C# is not for you.)"
You've been brainwashed by Microsoft. No one using LAMP cares about price (that much) or portability ('L' is for Linux). Freedom from vendor lock-in (and in this case, a predatory, vengeful vendor) is the biggest practical advantage. Stability and the thing actually fucking working is another (I never enjoyed babysitting Windows servers; do you?). It's also easier to build robust applications with LAMP.

Enjoy paying your Microsoft tithe, peasant.
