Ruby Is Groovy

[ObsessiveMathsFreak]

Jobs: Ruby is groovy man. It's got like, vibe. We had to get in on that.

Gates: C# with .NET offers more flexibility with less development worries and higher performance...

Jobs: Man! Talk about Squaresville! Ruby is hip man! It's a love machine. A child of the earth.

Torvalds: Ruby is based on perl, which is in turn based on bash scripting, which I like.

Jobs: You see man! Ruby is a free spirit. It grows in like, the sunshine. It doesn't obey your rules!

Gates: But it's just another paradigm. .NET can accomplish all the same....

Jobs: On Rails man! Rails!!! It's like hyperspeed into the cosmos. And that's why its fit for Apple's attention. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go get some podcasts over rss, browse some blogs, do some yoga. You dig?

***Jobs walk's away clicking fingers rhythmicly***

Gates: But it's all just flash and hype. Nothing really new is going on! .NET does all this! Why won't anyone listen? You believe me right?

Torvalds: Look man. I really just don't give a shit.
