Subject: Getting Ruby to output a windows command to text (log) file.

Hey folks,  I'm trying to create a program to ping one of my company's
computers every minute to measure latency, and output the results to a
text file.  I've been able to figure out / cobble together most of what
I need (see attached ping.rb file) but the problem i'm having is I
cannot figure out how to get Ruby to copy the results from the ping to
the text file that is created.

What I get currently when I run the program (from the log file):

The "ping" command doesn't output the way I need it to, HALP!!
