Douglas Robar did it again - took the time to write yet another of his amazing and detailed books on how to install umbraco. Following the series that already includes installing 3.x on Vista and 2.x and XP comes a long waited guaranteed  bestseller: Installing umbraco 3.x on Windows XP.

It's probably the most comprehensive guide to installing a piece of software ever made - nothing is missed. Even guides on how to install pre-requisites are explained step-by-step with screenshots included. You can even print the complete install guide, by clicking the print link on the home page of the book.

Doug, you're simply amazing - this will help a lot.

Douglas Robar is a freelancer and umbraco wizard with a vision to improving the communication of complex ideas. He has already used this vision to create two fabulous extensions to umbraco - XSLTSearch and ImageGen. Doug is available for hire through his company Percipient Studios, Louisville, KY.

    Also, if you for any reason need to run Umbraco 2/3 on a machine without IIS (fx Vista Home or XP Home) you could use UltiDev Cassini (http://www.ultidev.com/Products/Cassini/)
    which is free as in free and lightweight
