  Old  Best Windows Editor?

Hey Guys,
I've just started doing a bit of Ruby on rails development on my windows comptuer and I'm having a rough time finding the best tools.

I'm looking for something like Textmate but for windows?

Suggestions?

I've heard of jEdit and Intype as far as editors go. I haven't tried either yet because I hear jEdit is kind of hefty and Intype is kind of flimsy because it's still in Beta.

Also, Eclipse and Netbeans for all-out IDE but they just seem to lag my computer.

I hear e Texteditor is awesome but have yet to try it, anyone used that?

We use UltraEdit for HTML, CSS and Perl coding. It has syntax highlighting and syntax completion options. It's not CPU intensive which makes it quick to load and easy to use.

Dreamweaver is pretty good for coding but I wouldn't use the visual editor (WYSIWYG).
