The biggest improvement (IMHO) is multiple domains. You can have multiple
domains now that are not all hooked off of the same root area with
mappings. Each domain has it's own logging capability, and can have it's
own anonymous directory. All of these things were important to us when we
made the decision to switch. Also, we've seen that IIS4 handles ASP better
than IIS3, and FP98 is built in.

That's just what we've noticed here as for IIS4. It a bit slower, but
seems to actually be an improvement (when you can find all those pesky
variable that one can miss <g>).

just my $.02
