I'm not allowed to say what company it's for, but we just finished
building a site for a Fortune 50 company.

Others have mentioned google and Y!, which are of course very prominent.
Recently, IBM has remarked that it's endorsing PHP and throwing money at
PHP development to make it more enterprise ready.

Another argument I'd make is that PHP can run on a variety of web
servers, not just IIS, which give you more choice in your web
architecture.

ASP is certainly a fine language, but my personal opinion is that it
locks you in to a single architecture -- one that costs $$$ and which
has limited scalability. Those reasons alone are enough to look at other
languages.
