I'm not sure about XAMPP, it's been a while since I've used it. Just try it
I guess :)
For ultimate 'click'n'go'-solutions WOS is very qualified, no installing
needed, just doubleclick on the executable, and go (and to my knowledge
even opens a browserwindow directly). It does have the tendency to
overwrite the config files on a restart (or was it a PHP4 > 5 switch?).
That may require some fiddling, if the normal config does not do.
