Most Rails developers use Linux (often Ubuntu) or Mac so it can be
difficult to get help with Windows. If you absolutely have to use
Windows then I understand railsinstaller can be a good solution. I
would recommend that you either dual boot your PC with Ubuntu and
Windows, or run Ubuntu in a virtual machine (VMWare for example).

In addition to my previous post I think it would be very difficult to
/develop/ the application on a machine without internet access.
Running the app would not be a problem however.

I don't need to develop it without internet i just need the finished
product to run without it. so would it run fine without it?

As Jordan already said, yes. Provided nothing in your app requires
it, obviously.
