Microsoft has just released the Web Platform Installer (RC1). What is the Web Platform Installer you ask? From Microsoft:
“The Web Platform Installer (Web PI) is a simple tool that installs Microsoft’s entire Web Platform, including IIS7, Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition, SQL Server 2008 Express Edition and the .NET Framework.

The Web PI also helps keep your products up to date by always offering the latest additions to the Web Platform.”
The Web PI certainly looks promising as a quick ramp-up when setting up a development environment (or even a one-off server environment).
