CygWin is the GNU toolkit ported to Windows. It gives you Bash, X, gcc, g++, and 
all the toys that Linux & BSD programmers enjoy.

It also comes with a non-heinous Ruby, but I don't know how the others here 
would recommend that, because I only use it for trivia. You can also use CygWin 
in conjunction with the Windows One Click Installer Ruby.

(I install Linux on every box and notebook that gets near me, except the one box 
I keep legacy versions of MS Office and Visual Studio on...)
