I'm thinking of something like Wamp for Windows (a complete LAMP stack that you can install from one exe and gives you a simple control panel for the whole thing). Maybe a Linux distro that installs (or gives you options during install) all the packages you might want for a web business - source control, bug tracking, blog, wiki, web server, db, scripting languages, etc) plus configures firewall, backup systems, etc (or guides you through setting up something like that). Or maybe it's not a distro but a HOWTO.<p>Or maybe that sort of thing already exists and someone wants to link to it :)","time":1244629598,"type":"comment"}
