Downside to using Python in ASP/MS IIS server side?

[Anders Eggers-Krag]

Well there are other alternatives - I never understood why people use
VBScript,
rather than JScript, which would allow them to use the same scripting
language
both client side and server side allowing for more code reuse and a higher
degree of
learning and understanding the behaviour of the language

Admited be it that I am considdering Python, I also did about 6 months ago
but at that
time no one on this list could/would tell me how to handle Collections and I
gave up

Personally I will be looking deep into python for my next project and by
that time odds are
that you people have solved all the small issues that has made me stay away
from it till now :-)

anyway the point is that I think you should take a look at JScript too
