   Reviewing 1.6.8 Beta 2 (Sep 15, 2008)

   This makes installation of the included programs very simple. I would recommend at least trying to install them separately first if you are new to them, rather than always relying on a package like this, so you can at least understand a bit of what it's doing. I have been won over by the WampServer package and use that instead now; I would recommend trying that, but when I did use XAMPP I didn't have any complaints.

   Reviewing 1.6.7 Beta 1 (Jun 17, 2008)

   Disregard ZombieREA review: this is NOT for IT people, and this in NOT for people who need to update every single component with the latest beta. In fact, anyone who bothers reading the program description at all would see that the goal of this package is the total opposite, i.e. it is for people who don't know or can't bother installing and configuring a web server down to individual components and tweaks to match very specific needs. For what it is aimed at (again, please read the description), it does an absolute brilliant job, and thus I give it a well deserved 5.

   Simply awesome! Makes it easy for lazy people like me to host a fully featured website. Beats paying an ISP for a shell. :)

   Reviewing 1.6.3a (Aug 26, 2007)

   First thing: AIO pack is not gud idea for ITers. Because you don't know exactly what did they put in pack.
   Next thing: You should install these things by yourself that you can handle all of its. And last thing, you can update for each programm that you want, don't need to wait until next pack.
