A serious, redundant, scalable n-Tier architected solution can be built using the .NET Framework.
People forget or don't get that ASP.NET is a presentation tier technology (like JSP or PHP) and is just a part of the framework - so therefore why wouldn't I want my presentation tier technologies as near to the user i.e. the web server in the first instance?
Communication and hand off to the mid tier (built using .NET) is achievable via remoting, web services, MSMQ or using enterprise services (COM+ app proxies). That mid tier can both scale out and up as can ASP.NET on the front tier.
Correctly applied, ASP.NET/.NET is as equally capable of being used to architect highly scalable n-tier environments as is the case with JSP/J2EE.
