Installing XAMPP for Development

PHPDeveloper.org: PHP News, Views, and Community...: "From PHP Magazine: Open source stacks such as XAMPP from Apache Friends are simplifying open source development by making it easier to write and distribute applications in a stable and standardized environment. Traditionally, AMPP -- Apache, MySQL, PHP, and Perl -- have all been installed and configured as separate products. The trend of combining them into integrated middleware stacks promises to make open source development more competitive with J2EE application development, at least for low-end applications."

I've used XAMPP for ages now, to install the usual AMPP apps on web development boxes, both at home and in my classroom. Good stuff, check it out.
