Whoa! This seems absolutely like my position. Great job! Would love to have a look at your website (if you'd care to share the link).
Thanks for the advice - hugely helpful!

Yeah, I understand that point - but I'm still a bit unsure how to hit the ground running - you know, the initial qualms, what's the point that I start at? Do I just dive in and learn on the go? Or learn a bit, create, learn more and develop and so on.. ?
Glad to have some pros provide some great advice!

Yeah, I think more than money, the reason I am actually considering learning development myself is that it gives me some sort of "ownership security" - you know, the feeling that I didn't just have an idea but I own what I made of that idea rather than having got it done by others. Thanks for your advice!

Appreciate the advice, but I primarily wanted to know how much importance to give to the "time factor" - you know, I could spend 6 months developing skills for something I wanted to do only to realise that someone's get their foot into the hole I had my eyes on?
I'm sorry if this sounds puerile or naive, but it's just the first time I've had an exciting idea for a startup so I really want to see this come to fruition soon!

I'm primarily looking to develop a Rails app. (Sorry, missed that out!)
Help/Advice needed with starting a startup
I've pretty much conceptualized all aspects of a new web application that I'm rather excited about. (I know that kinda sounds like what everyone does these days, but I have!) I've talked to a few people about the idea (mostly entrepreneurs themselves) and they've advised me to go ahead with it without wasting time.However, the major problem is this: I have mainly had an education in Business...
Re:Will Apple replace the Macbook line with Macbook Airs?

Yes, something new could come in a few years for sure. But I'm talking about the immediate present. Maybe by the end of next year, I can totally see this happening because it'll be close to the 4th or maybe even 5th incarnation of the Macbook Air and these machines are sort of rendering the Macbook line obsolete and redundant as far as usability is concerned.
Will Apple replace the Macbook line with Macbook Airs?
Just wondering who else agrees with me that the Macbook line will eventually be replaced in the next couple years by the Macbook Airs. I'm sure the prices are going to come down as the number of Airs sold (already quite popular) increase. Eventually the price gap would no longer perhaps be significant and mobility with sufficient power be easily achieved by the Macbook Air along with its light...
