One morning walking to work I thought, gosh, it would be cool to have a summer intern, and I could tell the intern to write an ASP compiler that generated PHP as its output. Then we could produce a Unix version of FogBugz from our source code automatically, and as we added new features to the ASP version, they would magically show up in the PHP version without any more work.
Also see the bits about apps vs systems Hungarian.
