Other ideas: Head to head code comparisons are nice ways of showing ease of use... For example, passing three form variables and sending and email from a result. In PHP, it's 5-10 lines. CF/Perl/ASP, it's much more complex. Cost of add-ons: Choose some CF/ASP add-ons, and compare price to PHP add-ons.
