well you can read only theory online.
if you want to practice the programs then you will have to really work on installing softwares on to your system

You can use your mysql for creating the basic database of your website. I guess, you must be using its autoinstallation feature in which your server automatically configures databses for you..may be thats why you haven't used it..coz its needed before we get started.

Well MySQL is really easy. If you know how to use a computer then you can learn it very fast. You should have some basic knowledge of configuring a server and that's it. Iam a MCTS(Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist) in SQL Server 2005.
