I've been familiar with ActiveState for years, because of their
Windows version of Perl.  Until you mentioned this, however, it never
occured to me to check out their IDE.

I'll be downloading the demo version tonight.  For anyone who is
already using it, can you say that it's worth $300?

I've been switching between RadRails and jEdit on my Linux box for
most of my development.  RadRails takes up too much memory for that
particular box, and is generally sluggish.  I love Eclipse, however,
and have been using it for years.  So it would seem that RadRails will
eventually reach that level.  jEdit is fast and clean.

What I'm really missing though, which is my main motivator for
checking out Komodo, is a good debugger that works against a running
Rails server.
