All of our desktops have MySQL installed right along with the rest of the system. Put in the OS disk, point it to our kickstart file, and come back 45 minutes later to a complete system with Apache, mysql, Firefox, OpenOffice, everything we need. I guess with Windows you have to install one thing at a time though.
Seriously once you're at the point where whipping out a quick PHP script is easier than clicking dozens and dozens of buttons, that's about the time to seriously consider Linux on the desktop.
