.NET is taking over? Tell them that as long as Linux still hold the lion's share of the web server market, .NET isn't going to take over anything. True, it's possible to run .NET on Linux using Mono, but it's hardly an ideal solution.
Anyway, I don't see PHP losing it's standing just yet. Developers still write in PHP, after all, and a majority of content management systems were written in PHP. I remember a while back that Ruby on Rails was hailed as the next big thing, but while RoR is indeed an impressive language, it was still unable to knock PHP off the top spot.
