PHP: the quiet powerhouse
I wasn't thinking of scale. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't hiphop VM essentially expand PHP from just being a web language into something more?

I stand corrected. I hadn't thought of it really. But the thought of PHP for non-web kind of makes me cringe even if it's translated into another language by an intermediary. For sanity sake I'm going to assume NO :).
