NetBeans is the best. You can download the "ruby" version - so you have rails support out of the box. It has all the important features for me: debugging support, syntax highlighting, auto-formating, rake task runner, ./script/generate runner. In last three versions I used it - startup and running speed increased and number of critical bugs decreased.

I have tried Aptana, Radrails, vim with ruby scripts, jEdit with ruby support etc .. and I have settled for NetBeans. It's very easy to "pick up" for new developers ...
