The Task Scheduler is already a service, but it's possible there's
something else out there. There's probably 'cron for windows' and
such. A pure Ruby cron-like service would be a cool project,
though. :)

Junkone, are you having trouble with the taskscheduler or the win32-
taskscheduler library? The latter could probably use some TLC.
