personal preference would be ubuntu as an OS

apache comes standard from memory, and mysql is a one line install.
wordpress install is also very simple.

Since we're used to windows will try that - just rmember last WAMP install have a few bugs perhaps due to existing software on the server but it's now a fresh install.
