Request Alternate to XAMPP

Can the devs work on an alternative to XAMPP environment?

I used XAMPP recently and they have stated that the mods to it are because people were complaining about being hacked, I pointed out that if people ate stupid enough to use a computer on the internet without a firewall then they deserve everything coming their way.

They insisted on keeping the nanny interface and mods, in reality, it now officially sucks.

So can someone develop a full blown environment that gives MySQL, SQLite, PHP, Web server and a few other bells and whistles in addition please.

apache/mysql(i) 64 bit request

The XAMPP is buggy on a 64bit win7 machine anyway. So a stable portable Apache/Mysql(i) specialy for Joomla development would indeed be extremely handy and is asked for.

WinLAMP QT based solution

I'm working on WinLAMP, a QT based solution. I'm actually building it to be portable, and will be uploading the code to github soon.
