I agree for Linux, J.O. I find both Debian and Ubuntu's implementations
to be far better than XAMPP. Sure, you have to install several
packages, but the only real problem is figuring out which packages to
install.

On Windows, however, it is a completely different story. There I would
recommend XAMPP or LAMP to the new user.
