I'm looking for a minimum of fuss here to get up and running.
Bonuses:
- cross platform
- portable (can be installed/run from a USB)
Clarification: I'm not looking to setup a full-fledged remote testing server, I just need something simple that I can load localhost in my computer's browser and check my latest changes.

Some options include:
XAMPP: (Cross Platform) Comes with Apache, MySQL, PHP and Perl support out of the box and is portable but needs manual configuration if you defer from the default.
WAMP: (Windows) Comes with Apache, MySQL and PHP support out of the box and allows simple configuration through the tray icon. This also installs as a service so it's not portable.
MAMP: (Mac) Comes with Apache, MySQL and PHP support out of the box.
EasyPHP: (Windows) Comes with Apache, MySQL and PHP support out of the box and is portable.
XAMPP. It is also easy to do with PortableApps.com but you don't need PortableApps to do it on a removable drive.
Xampp is easy to install and you can choose to install it in portable form on a USB drive.
