Hello all,

having become a subscriber of PHP Classes recently, I have learned of an 
article that attempts to clarify certain misconceptions people might have 
about PHP (some of which have already been discussed here), that you might 
find interesting, too.  The author's "Top 10 Wrong Ideas About PHP" are:

 1. PHP is not a compiled language (it is interpreted)

 2. PHP cannot do X (access memory, control hardware devices,
    or some unusual purpose)

 3. PHP cannot do something that can be done in language X

 4. PHP is only for Web development

 5. PHP is controlled by only one company (Zend)

 6. PHP documentation is bad or insufficient

 7. PHP projects are not reusable because they are not Object Oriented

 8. PHP is worse than Ruby On Rails, Python Django, X language Framework

 9. PHP is not good for high performance scalable Web sites or applications

10. PHP developers are cheaper because they are not qualified

See <http://www.phpclasses.org/blog/post/155-Top-10-Wrong-Ideas-About-PHP-
That-You-Should-Get-Right.html> for details.
