on reflecting how to talk with prospect customers on technologies for web applications, what are important requirements for chosing a specific technology? I am biased towards ruby on rails, but the code base and community of PHP is larger, while the user experience of flash sites is often an advantage to the segment of higher paying customers.

how would you argue for or against the usage of a technology in general? for ruby on rails in particular?
