Great info here. Very useful. I wanted to a add a note that it is possible to run movabletype with mysql on Windows as well - I a musing Windows 2000 with SP4.

You can get mysql for Windows from the mysql.com website and if you install PHP as well (www.php.net) you can set up phpMyAdmin to make it easier to manage. Once that is set up and you have mysql running, you will need to run the following:

ppm> install DBD-mysql

so that you can use mysql with movable type.

From there, you need to follow the movable type install guide to set it up to use mysql and you are set.
