Hmm.. now I am confused...

What is the difference between:

describe "Foo" do

  let(:foo) { Foo.new }

  it "is tubular" do
    foo.bar
    foo.baz
  end

  it "is gnarly" do
    foo.gnarl
    foo.wurd_up
  end

end

vs.

describe "Foo" do

  before :each do
    @foo = Foo.new
  end

  it "seems just as tubular as the foo w/ let" do
    @foo.bar
    @foo.baz
  end

  it "seems just as gnarly as the foo w/ let" do
    foo.gnarl
    foo.wurd_up
  end

end

I am not seeing any difference...?
