[LUG] PHP as opposed to C#

 

Hi Guys

Just got this from a developer I am working with on a large project.
Can anyone offer me insight please?

"in terms of the platform development, im thinking about switching
from using php to c#. the downside to this is the requirement for a
windows server and the problem of running visual studio (c# ide) on a
mac! so this affects the running costs of the platform, but there
could be a massive long term saving. c# is alot nicer for development
especially for big platforms, its also compiled to machine code so a
webserver can serve more users alot more efficiently. php is ok but at
the end of the day its still a scripted language, and its not well
suited to such big platforms (in my opinion at least). i will most
likely be moving to c#, unless you can think of any problems this may
pose?"

Thanks.
