First of all, this is my first post to this group and I'd like to
thank whomever started this bad boy up.  I've been watching via daily
abridged updates that Google sends and I couldn't be happier -- real
world advice from real world rock stars!

Zed, thanks for the post above.  A lot of great information in one
place.

Yes, you can make it without knowing Linux/Unix if you go with a
hosted solution like EY or the like but you've got nothing to lose by
learning as much about your deployment environment as possible.  This
helps you communicate problems or issues a little better because you
know what's going on underneath the hood.  And, as far as I know, most
people find this kind of learning actually enjoyable. ;)

Another thing ... I'd like to thank Zed and Tom for both taking part
in O'Reilly's Shortcuts dealio.  It's awesome to be able to get so
much information in one small, compact source.  Seriously, those
things are *gold*.  In fact, the Shortcuts are a major reason why I'm
a subscriber to the Safari service and I'm always stoked when Rails-
related information comes across the radar.

The Shortcuts I'm talking about...
Mongrel: Serving, Deploying, and Extending Your Ruby Applications
( http://safari.oreilly.com/0321483502 )
and
Capistrano and the Rails Application Lifecycle ( 
http://safari.oreilly.com/0596529627
)

Again, thanks guys.  With your help, I'm looking forward to launching
some production apps in the very near future!

-Chris
