the microsoft crowd had a field day when someone posted this article a

Why the Microsoft crowd? It didn't feel to me like the author said
anything at all relating to MS, and I don't see how bashing PHP helps
MS at all (other than the fact that the rant makes EVERY language look
better than PHP by comparison, and some of those other languages are
created by MS; but MS makes only a small number of languages).
