Jeff Atwood:

The only conclusion I can draw is that building a compelling application is far more important than choice of language. While PHP wouldn’t be my choice, and if pressed, I might argue that it should never be the choice for any rational human being sitting in front of a computer, I can’t argue with the results.

Amen. I have argued that PHP’s main strength is its deployability, and I hold that stance. I still think it’s a crappy language.
