Hi I want to install Rails in my windows laptop but I don’t have  
internet conecction at home, so I’m saving in a usb drive the ruby  
installer (ruby182-15.exe) and the gems package (rubygems-0.8.11.zip) ,  
could anyone point me what other files do I’ve to take home.

I’ve tried instant rails, but actually I prefer the full istallation.  
Maybe I should give instantrails another try.

The UI is a little odd (because I forked it from the EasyPHP project),  
but it works fairly well, and we’re going to fix the UI for version 2.
