I second that Colin - I changed from windows to a mac about 3 months ago and love it. I'm not advocating a mac because they are expensive, but ubuntu is in all honesty very similar and just as capable. It will probably be my next move after my mac dies. It makes rails development way more seamless and integrated. Just an idea - I know it's probably not the first thing you want to do.
