It must run PHP and a database - I used MySQL.

A few folks have asked me how this whole web shop thingy is put together and what do I mean by free software and open source.

My servers run on GNU / Linux. A free operating system (all computer need on to operate).
I use Apache to serve the HTML and multimedia, the content is stored in a database - currently I am using MySQL, and the webscripting language PHP which preprocesses the request for a web page, queries the database and using a template make the web page you are looking at now.
