Has anyone had an opportunity to try out the new Zend Server community edition? It's a great way to maintain the latest version of PHP from an official source, while adding a great deal of functionality to PHP right out of the box. Every single PHP extension is included in the package, as well as a bundled version of the Zend Framework.
I had a chance to try out the Enterprise server, and the Zend Page Cache is awesome to say the least.
Installation guide can be found here,

Here's some more information to wet your whistle.
