Answer 5

Wordpress only requires the "MP" part of the LAMP stack - MySQL and PHP. It can work perfectly fine on a Windows server running IIS.

I would still recommend a .NET native option if that is the environment you have setup, but if there's a really pressing need to use Wordpress, it's still possible in Windows / IIS.
