Taste comes into it a lot. For example I abhor dynamic scoping 
(Powershell) and much prefer lexical scoping (Python).

IronPython tends to be faster than Powershell (at least in the embedded 
situation in which I compared them) and has more libraries (Python 
libraries as well as .NET) and a larger user community (if you include 
the whole Python community).

All the best,

Michael Foord
