Ruby Installer for windows which version?

Hi,

I just started ruby foundation. Which version of ruby to use? at the time of writing this question the website http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/ has 1.9.3 patch level 551 along with others. Should I get the 2.0.0 p598 or the 1.9.3 p551?

I installed Ruby 2.0.0 on Windows 7 and it has worked great for the Ruby Foundations course as well as the Todo List Application and ActiveRecord rails courses. You will not need to adjust any code.

Thanks, for the input. I'll go with 2.0.0. Appreciate the help.
