My disclaimer (and bias) is I'm a hardcore linux dev and never touch windows unless its forced upon me. So with that said, here's my thoughts.

"Myth 1: It's Easier to Bootstrap a Project In Rails"

Maybe, but still I doubt its cross platform (without headaches) - can you bootstrap MVC on Linux or Mac. This would mean you're married to the Windows Env (not a bad thing necessarly if thats what you decide you want).

"Myth 3: It's Better to Develop with RoR Because it's Open Source"

You say the complete .Net stack is open source? If so this really surprises me, considering microsofts rep, so I'd ask for links and is the C# compiler open source?

Finally, where's the advantage? ( I know you say your not trying to say this ) Why should people use something new unless there are reasons for it being not just as good but better at such and such? This whole post was about how MVC is just as good as Rails, which probably is true, but if you're a good dev and know your tools then Symfony2 or Django is probably just as good as well. The only reason to switch is when people start showing exceptionally new capabilities that make the devs life easier by trying out the new thing. Thats what rails did back in the day.
