I agree you have a better control over your software when you know it well and install it yourself.
I'll take a look to WAMP. I'm just wondering why MySQL is the standard DB server coming along with PHP and Apache in this kind of package. PostgreSQL seems to me much more powerfull.
Anyway. Thank you very much for your advices!
Cheers

I agree with your point, but am still of the opinion that setting up
your own configuration will be reclaimed down the line when you need
to change your configuration, and you have that extra bit of
familiarity. If you still want to go down the package route, there are
plenty of *free* equivilants to this, it's just that most don't
include PostgreSQL.
Try something like WAMP:
http://www.wampserver.com/en/index.php
And then install PostgreSQL using the Windows installer - It doesn't
get much easier than that!
Best of luck!
