I've not done a lot with PHP, but haven't (so far) run into any
particular problems with the Apache/PHP combination under Linux.

Actual Linux installation is fairly fast: the last install I did (RedHat
Fedora 17 on a dual 3GHz Athlon box with 4GB Ram) took about the
following times:

- 1.5 hours to d/l and burn a 3.6GB DVD ISO image, though the time it
  takes depends on your broadband speed.

- around an hour for the actual install. Exactly how long this takes
  depends on how much you customize the disk partitioning and the list
  of packages you ant to install. If you select 'all packages' and
  use two partitions (30 GB for root and the rest of the disk for /home)
  you should complete the install in just under an hour.

- 1.5 hours to update all packages that changed since the ISO image was
  built - partly dependent on broadband speed.

That should leave you with an installation that contains, among other
useful stuff,  Apache, PHP, Python, Perl, C, C++, Open Java, PostgreSQL,
Mysql and Eclipse.

If you're happiest with a Windows-like desktop, specify XFCE as your
desktop. Additional configuration should be minimal. Apache and the
various languages and databases should run if you enable their daemons
because their default Fedora configurations are fairly sensible - thats
Apache and any databases you need. All the other essential daemons will
be enabled by default, including the firewall and the SELinux security
module.

If you're familiar with Unices at all, you should be off and running PDQ.
There's a good graphical editor (gedit) as well as vi and emacs.
