That article is quite old and predates even MTS. Naturally, it talks

Yes. As far as I know, an ASPX page is processed by a dedicated STA
thread, and your object will happily run on the same thread.
Igor, asp.net processes the request on a thread taken from the MTA
thread pool, unless the page is marked with the AspCompat="True"
attribute, this is a departure from the asp model.
I admit I know very little about ASP. However, that article I quoted (
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms951557.aspx ) seems to suggest
otherwise. It claims that free-threaded objects (those running in MTA)
would be accessed via proxy by the page, while apartment-threaded (STA)
objects are accessed directly. The only way this is possible is if the
page processing runs on STA.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
