Sorry, I disagree...

Guys, good points, but that fact of the matter with scripting languages is they are interpreted and antiquated, as much as I share a passion (with you) for them. OOP programming is the future, and I think, unavoidable. Despite all the arguments FOR PHP, I can make against in terms of a comparison with .NET. For managing code, for security, for obfuscation, for distributed applications, for enterprise applications, for reliability and powerful class-based modular development, .NET and the OOP langauges are superior. As the world gets more complex and your langiages deepen and the systems you need to build get richer, you will need a more powerful framework. Im not against PHP or the other arm of that in temrs of an open-source alternative. Im just seeing business adoption as widening with .NET, whether you like that or not, and having a company that stands behind that technology that manages that framework is far superior to a minority community of people with varying levels of expertise wtriting in randowm documentation and updates that no one is managing. Ive used and evaluated both open source web systems and Micrsoft ones and there is sloppy coding in both. But I would rather turn to a reliable and growing technology community backed by a large experienced company thats a little costly right now than download "hacks" of code some poor soul sitting in front of their computer in their underwear in Croatia slapped together as the next best Web Services Solution for for me to download for free. Ive seen way too much BAD open source programming to trust that model....so have millions of businesses world-wide. :o)
