There are limitations? Where did you hear this? If there are any I haven't come
across them yet.

 Which version of Windows would be best ?

The most stable version for server use is currently Win2k.

 Is this gonna be a real pain in the ass to get PHP  MySQL  Apache 
 Windows to get along well?

No. It's like they were made to work together.
 
 Can I use IIS instead of Apache ?

If you really want to, but I can't think of many reasons why you would want to.
 
 Thanks!

No problem.

Ditto on all that for me.  use apache.  the instructions on how to get them 
working together are good as long as you are diligent about reading *every* 
word.  no half-ass instruction following will do.  mysql is just as easy to 
set up, and you have to do *zero* configuration of php to get it working.

i've used this comination before, and at the time i had NEVER used php or 
mysql before, and it all worked together nonetheless.

If you hate yourself. IIS is not very configurable, so you'll find 
yourself unable to do an awful lot of things.
