I'd counter your argument, but we ultimately agree so why bother. :)
I might download it and play with it at home, but HipHop has a long way to
go before I install it in an enterprise environment.

Do any of you use Facebook regularly, especially the more involved
"apps"? Zynga puts out what are probably the most complex applications
(their Mafia Wars game is an example). They look very cool, but if you
follow them at all, you'll find that the reliability is absolutely
horrible. Whether it's serious bugs, bad versions of code rolled out,
loss of persistent data (that's a database crash to you and me) or just
plain crappy code, the environment is definitely not something I'd want
to install in my clients' production systems.
Now, we may be comparing apples and ostriches here - Zynga is a
semi-free game on a social networking site - but I also suspect it's at
least partly due to the architecture, and more importantly to an
infrastructure that wasn't designed to be an enterprise environment.
