I have been using the free version for almost 2 years now. What appealed to me was it's simplicity.

I just set up a portable (i.e. USB Drive) Ruby on Rails development environment using Cygwin, RVM, and Ruby 2.0.0. So far it works, although I had a timeout error while trying to install rails, but that quickly vanished.

Welcome to the Ruby side. 
I've been doing Ruby on Rails development since Oct last year. It's a bit of a learning curve (I hadn't done any web development before) plus the whole feature testing thing, the language, getting familiar with best and worst practices, etc. Wrote a couple articles from what I learned. It's fun though.
I haven't updated to Ruby 2.0.0 - I'm still on 1.9.3. Don't know if I can have both installed on the same Windows OS.
By the way, get the RubyMine IDE - it's fantastic - all the things you expect - intellisense, syntax color, integrated debugging, tools and database management, etc.

I believe you can. Using Cygwin with RVM can help with that, and there is also Pik, which is like RVM, but works on Windows without Cygwin.

The Graal of every programmer : the portable development environment (that, being honest, hardly ever get used once operational).

My "portable development environment" is whatever portable computer I'm currently using (at the moment, a Surface Pro w/type cover). Since I got my first laptop (and a special exception to allow me to bring it with me to class in high school), I've never felt the need for any sort or portable applications. Easier to just use the machine configured the way I like.

Sadly, I would have to agree. I set up a VM on a USB-SSD with my entire dev system, and sadly I never actually used it.
As always, my laptop ends up being my portable development environment.
