Hassle-Free Drupal Development on Windows

Room: 
Missouri
Time slot: 
March 9th, 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM

Did you know there is free software to let you run virtual servers on your laptop? It's called Virtualbox, and it's a great way to get a decent development server running on your laptop or other machine. What's more, there is a disk image out there tailored toward making Drupal development work with virtually no server configuration.

Let's share and maybe write some documentation while we're at it.

Kelly and I are trying to figure this out - we will have some USB keys with the VirtualBox installer and the Quickstart image to install.

Maybe this will look more like an install party and less like a discussion.
