It would help if you're more specific on your objective. If you want to get started on
developing projects based on PHP but you're using Windows, like myself, then you'll need
to learn how set it up for Windows, either for IIS or Apache httpd. Thereafter, deployment platform
target is irrelevant except where your project(s) use platform specific extensions such as Wincache
or IIS. However, if you want to develop PHP extensions specifically for Windows, you're better
off asking in the windows list (php-windows@lists.php.net).
