As I said, long term it is an obvious thing to look at.
Right now it would be a major learning curve addition that i could do 
without.
If it had not been for some router / firewall issues I would have had 
Apache running from go to whoa in under an hour.
amazingly friendly

The "Windows distro" also has it by default :-) - and but there are so 
many options just a Google away that I was seeking the voices of 
experience.

It's been suggested that operating from behind a firewall is going to 
cause me some ftp headaches and/or run the risk of opening up my 
security somewhat. We'll see.
