I’m wanting to play with Rails 3 Beta 4, and from what I can tell, I
need to be running Ruby 1.9.2 for it to work. Is that right?
Well, I’m having a very hard time finding the install packages for Ruby
1.9.2. I am not an advanced enough user to get the source code and build
it all… I need ready-to-use installs or packages and as many
step-by-step instructions as I can get.
I need to setup all 3 of these development machines:
Ubuntu 10.04 (my work machine), OSX 10.6.3 (my home machine), and
Windows XP (my laptop)
On all three machines I am using the NetBeans 6.9 beta IDE.

The question is best asked on a Rails list, but I think 1.8.7 is
supposed to be fine.

Stick with 1.8.7 then. 1.9.2 has not had a release yet, so there are
unlikely to be official packages for it.

You can use the experimental versions from RubyInstaller project:
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=167&release_id=43874
http://rubyinstaller.org
You would need 7-zip to extract the package. Put in any directory like
C:\Ruby192 and add ‘bin’ folder to your PATH if you want to use form
the command line.
Using NetBeans, you can add it as another Ruby Interpreter.
For other platforms (OSX and Linux) I recommend you use RVM:
