It's kind of difficult for me to pick up/use ruby because it's quite different and the approach is different than what I'm used to. I am actually in the same boat as you. However I fear being stagnant and not at least trying out the next new things. I feel like this with Ruby, as well as Flex and Silverlight technologies. However I think with syntax simplicity comes improved productivity and better maintainability. So there is some benefit to having a "lighter" syntax. Not even mentioning the forced MVC architecture. My issue now is more of how well does it integrate with web servers, that will overall effect my adaptation to it or not. I have always had an issue with deploying Java technology on a single server with both a web server and an app server, I know this isn't required but it seems to be the norm. Found these: http://www.modruby.net/en/ -- Apache http://made-of-stone.blogspot.com/2006/01/rails-on-iis-revisited.html -IIS I like this setup though much better than Tomcat or Websphere for example, although both are super powerful it would be nice to have a middle solution, much like I use PHP for now. The IIS one seems like a huge PITA which concerns me. Not that I am a huge fan of IIS but some of my clients are, anyone know a better way?

vg8000 posted:The simple answer is don't use Rails on Windows in production. It really really sucks and very few people are doing anything about it. Thank you that probably saved me a few headaches. It is tough for me to buy into Ruby as a solution then because I have to be able to suggest stuff that works well on Windows since most of my business is with the State of California and they have been hard sold on .NET stuff. I am going to keep it in mind should a decent Linux contract come along.
