Quickstart Drupal Development Environment

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.
This group should probably have more organizers. See documentation on this recommendation.

Why spend time learning WAMP/XAMP/MAMP/Cygwin/etc, when websites are deployed on LAMP? Why hack up your Mac/Windows computer?

LAMP on Virtual Machine, files and development environment in the host (Windows)

I know that Quickserver it's meant to have the dev environment also in the Virtual Machine, but I'm finding more suitable for my case to have the dev environment on Windows.

So I still use LAMP stack, Drush, Aegir, and all that *nix tools that come already with Quickserver but the files and development environment is Windows 7.

Other alternative I was considering is to have a separate dev machine on your LAN instead of a Virtual Machine and share files over the network.
