It is not like that. My point is that there's a barrier to entry to RoR that you should own a Mac. I gave up because my home setup is Windows based and I won't change it for the sake of a hyped framework or tool.

But none of this is surprising considering where RoR is coming from, I'm not sad or upset about it either :)

You don't need a Mac. RoR works perfect on Linux as well.

it seems like you’re blaming RoR for a problem that is actually due to windows being “different”. almost every OS besides windows is a nix or nix clone and POSIX compliant or certified. so who’s really the problem here?
