Easily the best choice I made when switching over to Rails.
The IDE works so phenomenally well, it's amazing! I couldn't work without Rubymine.

I jumped in to RubyMine during the End of the World sale in December, and I haven't looked back. It's a really great IDE, and definitely worth having over a vanilla editor.
I feel like we are not the cool kids for not using vim or textmate or whatever else people use, but I also only use Rubymine.
How so? If they want to program in nano or use a dvorak keyboard, let them. It's about what makes YOU happy and productive. Who cares what other people use?
i actually use vim and dvorak. nano just makes you sound silly(although i know what your intention was).
But rubymine is a way awesome ide. The whole jetbrains stuff is actually.
A fellow vim/dvorak user here. I started using ruby around three months ago and am only just starting to integrate that back into my regular vim workflow. RubyMine actually looks pretty useful if I'm ever tempted to step back outside my zen (vim) garden...
Try using the IdeaVIM plugin. To my knowledge, it works with any member of the IDEA family of IDEs. I swear by it at work.
