MVC development

Well, I've finished the website in record time.  Developing on the new ASP.net MVC platform has been a treat really.  I really love the cleaner urls.

Could you go back to old url's like this: http://www.domainname.com/products/product.aspx?productID=12

when compared to MVC:

http://www.domainname.com/products/product/12

Plus the newer MVC pages are much more lean and clean.  Not to totally dis webforms as they really opened up web development to me from my winforms background.

BUT there was a hiccup - deployment wasn't exactly what I expected. IIS 6.0 wasn't too frilled with my extention-less urls at all.

Thankfully a quick Google search provided a timely and easy solution.

Now... if the DNS changes would just hurry up already!
