        All of those things seem to run faster under Windows. I know that  
Dabo does.

        The main advantage of working in a non-Windows environment is that  
you don't have to deal with the idiotic file system design: drive  
letters and the use of backslash as a separator. This complicates any  
code that needs to reference the file system.

        BTW, I've yet to see any Rails examples that *weren't* done on OS X.
