I think InstantRails is actually a great way to install Ruby and Rails
on a Windows machine, even though it hasn't been updated since the end
of 2007. I still use it for Rails development on Windows. You can use
it to install a working Rails 2.0 system and then upgrade to the
newest Rails from there.

I believe these would be the steps to get Rails working and up-to-
date, although I admit I didn't just try this:

1. Install and run InstantRails
2. Launch a command prompt from InstantRails
3. gem update --system
4. gem update rails
