Everything worked!  RVM, ruby 1.9.3, gem, node.js, sqllite3, webrick up and
running.  When I generated a new app, ran server, and saw ruby on
localhost:3000 I was overcome with joy.  The virtual box by Oracle works
great.  Out of the box networking, bi directional clipboard/drag-drop, and
easy 3d acceleration to run Ubuntu 12.10 which now apparently only does the
3d unity package.

I created my first controller/action, figured out (to some degree) routing,
etc.  Can't wait to work on something now.

Tamouse, thanks.  Having fun finally...
