Hey guys, here's an analogy concerning Php an= d MP. You can go to a store,
and you have $100 US to buy something to he= lp you hammer nails. The logical
choice is that you should buy a hammer right? It does what you need it = to,
and the shallow learning curve is nice. But, on the way to the hamme= r
section, you see this multi-purpose tool that can not only hammer the = nail
for you, but it can also buy the nail, hold the nail in the wood, and t= hen
make lemonade for you. Now, you go buy the multi-purpose tool, bring= it
home, and then realize that it doesn't do the one job that you wante= d it
for, hammering, as well as a hammer would.

This is how I felt wi= th Perl. It did so many things that I felt that it just
couldn't concent= rate one one thing enough, web applications. So, I found
myself at php.net <http://php.net> one day a= nd fell in love with the trusty
hammer.

What did you try to= do and couldn't do it with MP?

...really curious. :-)
