Subject: ASP.NET 2.0 vs Ruby On Rails

Hi,

I've spent the past few weeks desperately looking for good comparisons
on ASP.NET 2.0 vs Ruby on Rails.

At the moment I'm considering migrating from ASP.NET 1.1 to ASP.NET
2.0. I'm excited about ASP.NET 2.0 and it's new features but... I'm
also aware of the rediculous development time spent on an average
website.

So I'm wondering if my time an investement is better spent on RoR than
on ASP.NET 2.0. VS2005 is a wonderful IDE but C# is perhaps too
elaborate for speedy development.

Can anyone give me real life experiences on switching from ASP.NET to
RoR development? Is it really as good as the hype says it is? Is it
worthy of a long-term investment in time and money?

I really want to get to the bottom of this. I've been advocating
ASP.NET for a long time but now I'm having doubts about it. Maybe RoR
is the way to go?

Thanks,

Moni
