Setting Up a Windows Web Server @ enscape

This is a pretty good article that covers many of the things you 'should' know.
"In this article I’ll show you the basics behind setting up a Windows web server for use at home. Most people working on a website see having a local web server as a benefit as it removes the need for continually uploading to a remote server via ftp."

Over the years I have setup quite a few webservers on both Windows and Linux, during that time I have never heard of anyone recommending to install Apache and PHP on a Windows server. The logical solution would be to download and install Linux (It's free you know) and setup your Apache and PHP installs there. Heck most distros come with all of the software needed. (Try Slackware, it’s the bomb dizzle)

Before I start getting flamed I will admit I did install PHP on this Windows server, but for a good reason.
