So more correctly, it would be better to compare PHP and Ruby or RoR with PHP frameworks (there are lots around).
Actually, I did wanted to compare Ruby with PHP but since the framework is used widely instead of ruby itself, I thought comparing the framework with the widely known language would be better.

So what are your thoughts on this?
