> You could ask them why they need all that IDE stuff for developing in Ruby.
Because they develop complex applications with many Classes, thousands 
of lines of code and complex interactions. They probably also work on 
multiple projects at once, swap between java, HTML, CSS, SQL, Javascript 
and want an IDE to "just handle it" and be able to debug it. They like 
refactoring support, integrated version control, 1 click deployment 
across different servers etc etc. A text editor just can't cut it. (IMHO)
