Do you mean that literally (re-packaging xampp) or metaphorically (I can get this for free, over there)?

WampDeveloper has nothing to do with xampp. The only similarities are: WampDeveloper uses Apache, PHP, and MySQL on Windows.

That's another problem: that some visitors think "xampp"?

Even though WampDeveloper is a completely different system/framework, switches between all versions of Apache, PHP, and MySQL with a click, creates and manages all websites/VirtualHosts, has a full user interface, has a web application installer for Wordpress, Joomla, MediaWiki, Drupal, Magento, controls "local DNS" ... etc. All the things xampp does not do.

Or are you coming back to the "Why would I buy what I can get for free?" question.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into it some more.
