    Making a website like this,

    Wordpress would be my engine of choice to build that particular one. Language being Php/MySql. After checking out the source, it is indeed done with Wordpress 2.8.5 and looks to be a purchasable theme.

    Suggestions for a CMS

    WordPress does everything any client I ever needed, and easy to use, extend, and secure. In the 2 cases Wordpress was not an option, I built my own custom CMS. A CMS that needs to handle much e-commerce should give Magento a serious consideration.

    Which is best Asp.net, Php, Sharepoint?

    Sharepoint is a huge asp.net framework for putting together massive connected systems across multiple domains in business networks.

    Is PHP a powerful tool?

    It's a virus, lol. Seriously, its like any other tool, it's great when used for the appropriate reasons and when the person is actually capable of writing decent code. I prefer asp.net but I love WordPress and some of the other open-source solutions out there so PHP has a place in my heart...

    Content Management System

    I shouldn't have said "why reinvent the wheel" without adding "each time" on the end. There are cases to develop a custom CMS for a project for sure!! I do it lots with asp.net projects. Also, ExpressionEngine is just plain kick-ass...good choice.

    Content Management System

    You weren't taught how to use one because hopefully you were taught the skills to build one. That being said, knowing the theory and concepts of programming (web languages) or other there is an important point made already by a few people: Why re-invent the wheel? There are many great systems...
