Actually I have no idea why I did my script in /bin/sh, maybe I had something off for lunch that day:-).
If you ever check perl vs sh, you'll find that perl is HUGE and takes a long time to start, compared to sh. I only switch to perl when scripts get complex.
/bin/sh is found pretty much everywhere on *nix systems, but I agree perl is more portable across into the Win* world too.
