This is the most asinine thing I've ever read on here. The first thing any smart person can figure out is that RoR doesn't make 37signals what they are. They have always said that themselves. Fast agile development, and all the other things they talk about in their Getting Real book make them what they are, but certainly not which language/framework. This is a lot like debating what care you're going to buy based on what the manufacturer of the car that won NASCAR last weekend was.

Sure, there are other things that are important as well, but I do think there is a best in many cases. It may not be the same for each case, but it's worth looking at what different people use and how it enabled their success.
