I don't know for sure. Theoretically that should be the case, that's
the whole purpose of an object relational layer after all.  I can
certainly see problems if people used mysql specific SQL in their code
though. Otherwise if they built their schema using migrations I think
it should work fine.

It would be an interesting test though..

Anyway I have another question:

Where should I put any additional gems I download for my rails app? I
am planning on developing on windows but deploying on Linux.
