PHP ships with Mac OS X by default 

I spoted this over this page 
http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/?k=downloads

it's about php-cli
so php programmers could do scripts easier
than writing them in bash/perl/php or python

Here are some examples of scripts that i have created to automate
installation on new ubuntu server nodes

I wish php was there by default because almost all the scripts needs
to install php-cli first

I posted an new idea to the brainstorm area
