With all due respect, that's a little silly. :) I'm a die hard Rubyist and I'm very impressed with many things in Ruby 1.9. I can't wait until we're all using it for everything. But, that's not yet the case. The current 1.9 is a preview release. We expect to see the first stable 1.9 around Christmas. Until then, it's still a bit of a moving target unsuited to most production code. The majority of Rubyists the world over are going to be sticking with 1.8 just a bit longer for that reason. It's also very trivial to have two installs side by side: $ ruby -v ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) [i686-darwin9.4.0] $ ruby_dev -v ruby 1.9.0 (2008-03-01 revision 15664) [i686-darwin9.2.0] Anyway, that's my two cents worth.
