One guy reporting that SB doesn't go on his Windows box pointed me at WAMP, a PHP5+Apache+MySQL distribution for Windows. Looks good - I wasn't looking forward to installing all the bits and pieces separately on my Windows box. Let's just hope it has a decent uninstaller as well, for once I'm done :-)
Downloading now... 23 megabytes. Getting 65 kB/sec through the office's DSL line. To think that ten (twelve?) years ago I balked at downloading FrontDoor, which, at 800k or so, took an hour at 2400 bps.
Heh, in the time it took me to write that and look up a link to FidoNet, the download finished.
