Hell, I'm still an Microsoft MVP in ASP.NET and I've been working on rails for a while. Most of the recent apps I've built have all been rails: http://urlagg.com http://hushchamber.com
and another coming out in friends & family beta in a week or two (also rails). I moved because ruby and rails made development fun again, I love to write code and ruby is way more fun. That's not to say it's not without it's headaches, but by and large I'm much happier with my MacBook Pro, TextMate and ruby on rails than a tablet, VS2008 etc. There are a bunch of folks that have made the move, lots of twitter-folk to: http://twitter.com/jschoolcraft http://twitter.com/rbazinet (I'm almost positive) http://twitter.com/mentalvelocity the softies on rails mentioned above are both on twitter.
