[Web4lib] looking for

[Bill Hudson]

Take a look at http://www.jumpbox.com/app/lampd It's a virtual appliance you
can download and have running in less than 45 minutes, including the time
required to install the free VMware server software (longer if you have a
slow connection ;-). Downside is it cost $300 but you get support with that
as well as some other cool VMs to play with. 

If money is an object, check out VMware's Appliances link, they have a
number of LAMP servers you can download for free. With the Jumpbox option
you can have a tad more confidence you aren't getting a compromised machine.
With the free VM's, well, buyer beware!
