That's probably the #1 answer. There are a few other considerations as well.
EIGRP is REALLY easy to implement. Give it an AS number and define a network
and you're pretty much done. But on a big network with thousands of sites,
SIAs can become an issue if you keep everything in a single AS. On the other
hand, OSPF requires a bit more forethought into its deployment, but has a lot
of scalability built in and is vendor independant.
