Yup. I had to turn off IIS 'cause I couldn't find where the port was
set for apache, although I think I remember now. Other than that, it
took off like a bird.
The main page that appeared for http://localhost looked a little funky,
but when I added content to the WWW directory it was immediately
available.
Thanks much
