I don't use wordpress....just like I don't eat at McDonalds......I eat local organic produce....which is why I use Drupal.....wrap your head around that and rethink your Wal-Mart lifestyle.

Drupal is great, I think of it as the best for development. But there is no reason to get all fanboyish about it.
