I think anything is better than POJS.(plain old javascript)   The feature=
s
of Prototype and YUI seem to be about equal.(ajax, DOM manipulation,
events, etc)  I'm leaning toward YUI because of what I've seen with the
Logger.  I don't know what Prototype has for logging/debugging, but I
think that's a key feature to have from a development point of view.
