Your data points may differ, but eBay makes profits of 1B on mainly a Java platform. Other large companies use Ruby, PHP, Python and Java which all are based on OOP.

But I would be interested in your arguments.

CEOs using 'always' is so funny when they only think about the next quarter.

See what 'always' is worth if revenue growth does not keep up and the CEO changes.
