I think a lot of people are turned away from using PHP because it is such a nightmare to install. I
install Apache/PHP and it never works.
With todays technology, is there not an installer that just works for PHP and Apache together? There
are so many versions/binaries but how about publishing one that just works.
I've been developing in PHP for over 10 years now and yes I still have issues trying to get
this to install on a new machine. It usually takes me about 4-5 hours every time even though it
should only be a couple of steps to get it to work.
