# Including Typhoeus adds http methods like get, put, post, and delete.
# What's more interesting though is the stuff to build up what I call

This comment is going to be extremely biased, but that's just the way I am.
You didn't mention Linux.
For coding, vim is the way to go. It's the best editor out there IMHO.
GIMP/GIMPShop for slicing images. (GIMPShop has a very Photoshop-like UI, or so I've been told. I've never used PS)
Apache and WEBRick for local testing servers. (No real difference there)
