Yes OK thank-you, I would anyway, I just thought that someone may know of any good articles giving a good argument for and against PHP (or open source)

I think you'll find it hard to find an unbiased article either for or against open source software.  The Open Source community is for it; the big software manufacturers are against it; and the rest of us are really happy that open source provides software that often outperforms commercial stuff.
