Setting up your own Web server can be a pain when trying to install PHP, MySQL, Apache, and phpMyAdmin. There are several different applications available that try to make doing this easy by installing all of the above for you, and my favorite has always been EasyPHP.

For those of you looking to test out different Linux distribution or maybe tinker around with Vista (if you downloaded a pre-release version while it was available) this is your time to do it. VMware Workstation 6.0 Beta is currently available for download and they will even give you a free serial number to use with it.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could take your computer with you no matter where you are? If you have a laptop, this isn't so difficult, but when you rely on a desktop computer, this becomes an issue.  It's always nice to have all of the applications that you want, the music that you like, and of course all of your important documents, files, and settings.
