When a customer comes with his new beautiful dual-core server and get a basic plone install up and running, he will immediately compare it to J2EE and wonder why he should pay a consultant to make it work properly. At this time, it 's not easy to explain him that python is not flawed compared to Java, and that he will not regret his choice in the future. First impression may be decisive.
The historical explanation should be inefficient here, I'm afraid. What about the argument that said that multi threading is not so good for parallelism ?
