April 21, 200818 yr Hi web-rookie, You'll need a web server of some sort to install and play around with Wordpress. If you don't have an web server you can always download and install something like XAMPP, which is a web server that you can install and run on your PC (or Mac — but I'd recommend MAMP for the Mac), without even being connected to the internet.

April 21, 200818 yr Apache is the actual web server — everything you need comes with XAMPP, though. I'm not sure how good it is but I found you a tutorial on installing XAMPP and Wordpress @ http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/xampp/
