Drupal vs Joomla
Just my 2 cents, but...
Joomla seems overly complicated and the killer for me is a lot of the contributed modules seem to be commercial, meaning you have to pay to register them.
Drupal on the other hand is a lot easier to get going but can also handle complicated implementations. The community also puts out a ton of add on modules which are all open-source and free. The only thing which I cant stand is their ecommerce module, which is not ready for prime time. I've hired a developer to create add on modules for drupal to handle stuff which didnt exist yet and a better OpenAds integration mechanism then what existed in the user contributed modules.
Overall id say Drupal is more suited for the every day webmaster and Joomla seems to be the wet dream for a coder-at-heart. Unfortunately with Joomla (1.0 and 1.5) you have to be almost a coder to make it do anything the least bit interesting.
I'm not going to spam but I will say that the site referenced in my sig banner is built solely on Drupal 5.x
