    As far as ease of use goes, xampp wins. It's pretty easy if you take the time to read the manual.

    I wouldn't use those LAMP bullshit servers,

    Your best bet is to go with an actual hosting company or run apache/litespeed or lighthttpd on a dedicated linux system of your own, like I do with fame.

    What you're suggesting isn't "user friendly" though, and people these days have lost the ability to read manuals. You shouldn't ever use a LAMP server in a production environment, but most people just want a quick solution.

    The easiest solution is XAMPP/WAMP, but the best solution is Linux/Windows + Apache + PHP. Best meaning you're not gonna get easily hacked by flaws in the all-in-one program

    I've heard of nginx, but I don't know much about it. If you know what you're doing with it, you should be fine.

    nginx = Off by one overflow (0-Day).

    Used it against a game company awhile ago to steal some files after auditing the shit for like 2 weeks straight, still hasn't been patched either.

    Go use wamp, i found it to be easiest for home pc. Otherwise get a VPS server 15$ month and you can start your website in no time.

    I fixed the Appserv with MSSQL, And It's working great. Maybe I'll write a guide soon how to.
