I'll second that you're likely to find more help on a non-Windows system just because there are more people here with experience on Mac and Linux.
I also second getting RVM for managing Ruby. And before you get to an IDE, I would use the command line to make sure you've got your environment correct. However, I'd say that once you've gotten your first Rails app running on localhost, then RubyMine is going to be a great help and save you lots of time. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
