Personally I use a custom uniform server (http://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver) which is basically a zip-file that you unpack on your Win32 windows system, and you're ready to django. This way you get apache2/mysql/phpmyadmin/etc. and django running in no time.
To me that seems easier than running VMware. but I guess VMware is platform independent? If more people are interested in a uniform server zip, I just need a place to host it.
