Working IDE for Rails3 on Windows

I´m having a hard time configuring NetBeans for Rails3 in Windows. I got a lot of problems, many o then reported even here.

So my question is: which of the following IDEs are best situated for Rails3 in a Windows Box right now:

RubyMine

Komodo IDE

RadRails

Look, i dont want to start a discussion (kinda x vs y). I just want to know from people who already are developing in Rails3 with Windows what is the better choice in the long run.

Thanks!

EDIT

Issue 1

Issue 2

Note: Im using RubyMine by now and facing no problems

I'm using RubyMine.

You can try it for free for 30 days. Before my time with RubyMine, I've used NetBeans for Rails too. But I have to say RubyMine is the money worth.

When I develop Rails on Windows, I use Aptana RadRails or Aptana Studio (pretty much the same thing). They are a little bit heavyweight, but I like the Eclipse interface in general. It often does better at syntax highlighting and autocorrecting than TextMate and has vastly better keyboard shortcuts. The TextMate/Mac fanboys are probably going to come after me for saying that. If you have plenty of memory to spare, Aptana is the way to go.
