After a few weeks learning Ruby on Rails I am finally starting to enjoy things. It took some time to set up the Ubuntu virtual machine in virtualbox and install everything, but the development environment part was probably the most frustrating part. The linux command line is also unforgiving with spelling errors and that takes some getting used to at the start. Now I have everything just right so keep an eye out for updates.
