    The best way of course would be to get PHP and MySQL on a box and start pplaying around with it. You can download and install them freely and there are many PHP resources around to learn the language.

    ??? Why use Apache on Win2k or XP - when you have IIS at your disposal?

    Apache .htaccess files are very powerfull (you can do stuff like symlinks and virtual directories)

    you can use Linux.
    Everything can be installed at install time and you won't have to pirate or pay lots of money just to get apache and PHP running.

    you probably know all the other advantages why people like Google and Amazon use Linux so I won't preach

    Why would you have to pirate to get either of these to run if you're not using Linux?

    I suspect that he was referring to the cost of getting Windows to run Apache and PHP
