Would you say that the performance for rails, specifically running rake tasks and webrick is faster that using the windows command line?

@curemymind Thanks this fixed it for me too (Vista Ultimate SP2). Otherwise a great video!

when i did the test in rails it was wrong and i couldn't use test. But then i read the website and to make structure it was just "rails new path_and_name" or just the name instead of the path then you can sd into it. After that the script/server in the new version its actually "rails server" and there you have it ull get a firewall from windows im using windows 7 by the way. And the rest is as the video says :) which by the way is awesome :D.

No, I don't know much about those small computers, but if it's Linux you should be able to install RoR on it using the Linux install procedure, and if Windows XP I imagine you should be able to do Cygwin install as my tutorial illustrates (depending on disk space available, etc)

Amazing video. Thanks! Did you install SQLite to have a backend ? Can you tell us why SQLite was installed ?

I installed sqlite in order to do the minimal installation without errors. If you don't install sqlite, you'd have errors just getting the Welcome page to come up. So for the purpose of doing the most minimal amount of required things; was my goal in getting RoR setup within Cygwin
