web-development

Many experienced people I know tell me that many web-projects, including enterprise ones, are better to develop with Java being back-end. Reasons:

Ubuntu servers being cheaper and more reliable.
MySql being much more "light" rather than "heavyweighted" MS Sql.

I heard some more, but I really cant remember all of them.

My question: I believe ASP.NET and Java are BOTH good for web-development and its just holywar subject. Am I right or not?
