Which installer is better?

XAMPP is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl. XAMPP is really very easy to install and to use -
just download, extract and start.

WinLAMP is an installer for Apache, MySQL, and PHP.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=80998

WinLAMP is about 60 mgb
XAMPP is about 30 mgb
That's all I know about them.

Which is easiest to install and use??
All I need is apache server, php and mySql.
