I was talking about tools.. Not programming languages in specific. I guess my main point is that something free is not necessarily cheap. It all depends on your productivity with it. I'd rather have a productive tool / framework where I have to pay for, than a free tool where I first have to create a framework for the most trivial things.
Too many times I've wasted many hours to get something free working for me, while I could have bought something for $100 off the shelf, coded and tested.
