Had you quoted me inline rather than top posting you would have seen that I was in no way suggesting that anyone should change from Windows if they do not wish to, merely pointing out that a discussion like this is not necessarily useless as you suggested. > Could you please, point me a Linux forum for Dummies like me? I thought this was a Windows specific thread :) https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users helped me a lot and continues to do so. See also http://ubuntu-manual.org/ > This is a Ruby on Rails forum, and this is a Windows specific > thread... I think it is entirely reasonable whenever anyone asks how to install Ruby on Windows ( which is the thread topic) that they be made aware of the alternatives, in case they were not so aware. I agree that detailed discussions of the pros and cons should be in a separate thread however. It is interesting note that, as far as I can see, the OP has not responded even to the help that was offered with installing on Windows, which suggests he was not that bothered in the first place and likely has no objection to the thread being hijacked.
