i am running windows vista and am working on the download of ruby and
rails......so heres what i just did ......I downloaded  and installed
ruby 1.9.1-p429
then I downloaded and installed rubygems 1.3.7 ......my next
question:  would it be better to install rails through the command
line? or to download it as a standalone package?
