Apache Tomcat is the reference implementation for Servlets/JSPs, so I don't
think that should cause problems. Maybe you heard about IIS and Apache?

On my development machine I have IIS 5.1 on XP Pro SP2 working together
with Apache Tomcat 5.5 for Servlets and JSPs - it works side by side with
ASP.NET and PHP without any problems. Before people jump on me about
safety issues, let me again stress this is a development & testing machine.

You don't really need IIS btw, Tomcat has everything you need to get
started. So I suggest you just download it, get a book or online tutorial
about Servlets/JSP, and jump right in. I think you'll find it's not that
complicated.
