That way there's XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html) too!! But I prefer doing these things manually. It gives you more control and also teaches you a couple of things. ;) Thats why I suggested that thread.

thanks for Xampp

Well XAMPP is good for development , and u can do manual install for production use as it gives more control .
