I was just curious as to what OS > you prefer to run/code ruby in. If you run *nix, what distro? Usually, I code on FreeBSD with vim, and Ruby 1.8.7 or 1.9.1. For my day job, I'm trying to push ruby for different tasks (automated builds, small tools, embarked scripting language). There, I have to work with a bunch of windows versions (XP, 2003, vista, seven, 2008), using NetBeans. If I can, I stay with JRuby, but the different packaging tools (RubyScript2exe then OCRA) are an interesting alternative with Ruby 1.8.6/7.
