Apache runs fine on any (modern) version of Windows. However, if you want
a server, why not go with a server version of Windows?

AFAIK, the load balancing feature of Windows is TCP based, so it should
wor. You may want to ask in an Apache or Windows form though.

What are your requirements? Maximum security dictates setting up the
database server in a different DMZ. Other than that it is just a question
of load, and unless you are setting up the next eBay or Hotmail the same
server probably will do fine.

Try the respective websites. All three have great HOWTOs on how to set
things up. If those (and using Google!) don't answer all questions you
have, ask yourself if you really want to connect this to the
hostile Internet. Seriously, all three sites have very good documentation,
if this is not enough for you I suggest you step back, try to get a few
good books, get some more experience and only then connect your webserver
to the Internet.
