I agree. I think you have to try both in order to know whether you made the right decision. I started off learning PHP in the beginning, then switched to Ruby on Rails. Of the languages I've learnt so far, Ruby is by far the most fluid. It's a beautiful language. Rails allows you to do many things really quickly as well, and at the time that I switched, PHP was still lagging behind in frameworks. I haven't hopped back into PHP, so I'm not sure where they are now, but I haven't looked back since going onto Rails.
