+<p>CodeIgniter is written to be compatible with PHP 4. Although we would have loved to take advantage of the better object handling
in PHP 5 since it would have simplified some things we had to find creative solutions for (looking your way, multiple inheritance),
at the time of this writing PHP 5 is not in widespread use, which means we would be alienating most of our
potential audience. Major OS vendors like RedHat have yet to support PHP 5, and they are unlikely to do so until 2007, so

+<h2>CodeIgniter is Light Weight</h2>
<p>Truly light weight. The core system requires only a few very small libraries. This is in stark contrast to many frameworks that require significantly more resources.
Additional libraries are loaded dynamically upon request, based on your needs for a given process, so the base system
is very lean and quite fast.
