use whatever you are most comfortable with. mac/textmate is a good combo. linux/kate is IMHO good, too. even windows might be alright for some people. there are people outthere that prefer to use an IDE. there are many around and some of them run on most OS.
personally, i like linux better than mac, because i've been using it for my desktop-pc at home for a very long time. i got used to its look and feel and love the console. mac is alright, too. textmate is a great editor with tons of plugins. once you get accustomed to a mac, it's actually really nice to work with. the main thing is: you should feel good using whatever tools or operating systems. as i already said in another (very similar thread): i don't think it's a very good idea to try to learn how to use a new operating system whilst trying to master a new language/framework. so if you are a beginner, my advance would be: don't change whatever you are running (maybe later). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
