Wordpress or Windows (that he is using)?
That said, he does have a point that WP's insistence on making everything dynamic is rather silly.
When I read he was going to do some web stuff I was wondering if he would use a windows server. I admit I don't keep up on what MS offers in the server side but it seems linux + apache is still a better choice.
On the plus side, he's not pro-Windows in the sense of being an evangelist or anti-something else. He's been working for a consulting business up until now, and there's great money in .Net consultancy, just like there is with Java. It's just a very different world from the LAMP-style web community.

People publish working websites all the time on Java+whatever and on .Net+Windows, and Microsoft is working to make Windows/IIS a workable platform for PHP. I would personally recommend a LAMP-style stack for someone trying to decide what web technology stack to learn, but for someone who already knows a different stack, it may not be worth the trouble unless you need immense scale.
