Difference? A lot...
1. ColdFusion is from Macromedia+Allaire; ASP is from Microsoft
2. ColdFusion is tag based; ASP is script based
3. ColdFusion is platform independent; ASP is not that independent (runs only on NT/2000, or ChiliASP)
4. ColdFusion is not free; ASP is "kind of" free since it comes with NT/2000
5. Development in ColdFusion takes half of that of ASP

ColdFusion is the easiest! (IMHO) Easiness in decending order:
1. ColdFusion
2. ASP
3. PHP
4. JSP
5. Perl
6. ???

Although CF cost more initially (because you have to buy the software), but in the long term you gain more because your development time is very much less.
