Sorry, it was early this morning (after a long night at DrupalCampNYC), and I accidentally posted this originally as a page, so the URL path was screwy. I quickly republished it as a blog post, but not before Planet Drupal had indexed it. I've fixed it with a quick redirect, and apologize to anyone who might have caught the dead link... :/
Drupal is more professional than Joomla as far as development is concerned.
Joomla is great for somebody who wants all the bells and whistles and is willing to spend the next 6 months forcing them to work.
Wordpress is good for people who want to do business and are not interested in development.
I personally feel that Wordpress will continue to do what it has set out to do. I feel Joomla may fall down the same security path as phpNuke did by offering under experienced programmers access to things which they aren't going to be able to secure or support properly. Drupal will take alot of good programmers and make them better programmers I think. Although I am not a big fan of the object oriented paradigm. However I do think for the real programming professionals there are better options. But the market seems to be shaping thier destiny with drupal.
All things aside. Make sure what ever add-ons you have come with a professional commerical backing. History has proven time and time again that the non-commercially supported projects die out.
Why cant the "drupal community" put up so contrib theme that just don't flat-out suck? Even this site is using a drab mind-numbingly boring out of the box theme. When it comes to themes or templates, Joomla is light-years ahead of Drupal - which has me scratching my head, Where are all the Drupal theme designers??
