(Anyone with knowledge of other systems, please add that information.)
XAMPP: Easy to install and use, though it would help to have some idea of what to expect before starting. Minor glitches probably due to my initial inexperience and old computer. Support site primarily German but with an English section (all docs available in English).
EasyPHP: Additionally, There is another Open Source Local Server package available, it is EasyPHP and can be found here EasyPHP, I only have experience with this distribution, but found it simple to install and use.
WAMP: Easy to install and use. Current release has Apache2, MySQL5 and PHP5. Extensions available include PHP4, MySQL Admin and Zend Optimizer. Documentation is sparse, but administration controls are awesome. Had it up and running on WinXP in less than an hour and easily added both Drupal and Zen Cartâ„¢ test sites.
