How we want the installation under Windows should work? The consensus is probably "copy everything (php.exe, php.ini, php*.dll, extension's and library's DLLs) in some directory (e.g. C:\PHP) and edit your server specific file". Is it politically correct to try changing the PHP itself to work with these simple installation instructions instead of writing complicated instructions divided for different servers, PHP versions, newbies - advanced, machines with more than one PHP version, etc.?
