Using Vruby instead of VB ?

Inspired by Steve's presentation at RubyConf-2003, (
thanks to zenspider, see:

Steve Tuckner: Ruby World: (Not) Implemented
www.zenspider.com /dl /rubyconf2003 /RubyNotImplemented.tar.gz
)

I am looking at the possibility of using Vruby/Swin instead of VisualBasic
to develop a small (commercial) application on Windows. This application has
to:

1. Have native (Windows) look and feel
2. Interface with MS Access (possibly with MS SQL Server2K in future)
3. Print reports in landscape and portrait mode
4. Run only on one machine (no networking etc)

With Steve Tuckner, Dan Berger, Park Heesob and many other Win / Ruby
experts on my side, I feel like taking the risk ;-)

What do Rubyists have to say ? Any gotchas I need to be aware of ?
