I would be surprised if many programmers bought Macs, having owned something else presumably, just to run a language. Ruby was available on all platforms from the off (or at least since the article in Dr Dobbs). In my experience a lot of web developers and graphics people like Macs and Rails is a web framework. So Ruby, via Rails, caught on with Mac users who are not shy about telling the world about things they think are great.
Community and Evangelism tend to go hand in hand with Mac users :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
