Thanks to both of you - a lot!

Well, one nice thing is the fact that I can have multiple instances of 
Ruby on my machine (which is very helpful).  Not many people can say 
with any other language that you just rename 2 folders and everything is 
back to working condition, hehe - with ruby you can!

So, I might try doing a few of the suggestions tomorrow (when my brain 
unmushes) on the 1.9.1 install folder.  I kept it intact and it has most 
of the correct gem updates.  I really want to try and get the mysql 
running and if it works on 1.9.1 with what I use then all the better.

Tomorrow is another day - I'll try again.

I finally got down to working with winapi in Ruby today when I was 
finishing up my other book.  It was fun to learn some of that stuff with 
Ruby.

I still love Ruby and it's ease of use.

Programming is easier than installing! Go figure. :)
