@Stephen

If you installed the pre-packaged LAMP as opposed to Apache then MySQL then PHP,it was installed on an slightly different way than you could be used to.This normally goes on the directory /opt/lamp .The way to remove it would be to delete that directory i.e sudo rm -fr /opt/lamp and you are good to go!In my experience,installing the separate packages individually would give you more flexibility - you can leave LAMP to college students learning how to write Html codes! :)

@everyone_else

Anyone who bashes open source is either misinformed or just being special(noun. a crazy person.Example in a sentence,Special school).Unless you just landed from a 10-year trip to Mars,you do know Google,Facebook,Yahoo and Amazon(just to name a few) were all built on Open Source products.The US military,Russian Government,Indian Government e.t.c all run Open Source products.Closer home,John Gitau stated on this list that he designed systems for a large ISP almost entirely based on Open Source products(excluding the networking gear).I know Open Source installations that have been running longer than my career has spanned...silently and with power in those dark D.C rooms.What more evidence do you want?Would you like us to turn water into wine for you to believe us?For someone to say that the reason why companies cannot maintain a 99.999999 up-time is because of Open Source software would be tantamount to blaming the President and Prime Minister for the hot weather we are experiencing in Nairobi - totally baseless! The same person bashing Open Source is the same person bashing people born at a certain time.As to that,I would advice you to get back to us when you have serious matters to talk about,our generation was taught to ignore people who want to argue for the sake of it! :)
