Rails 2.0 on Windows: Making Sense of Old Tutorials

I know it is fairly well documented around the web that some of the old 'ROR up and running' tutorials are a bit difficult to digest with the new features in in Rails 2.0. So, I wanted to document my findings. And provide links to the resources that have helped me.
Here's a couple of resources to get started:

Stay posted for more of my findings.
