I refined the install instructions. I did take some screenshots and I'll try to update the wiki when I get back online in about a week or so. Thanks!
Installing Local GetSimple on Windows 7 XAMPP
1. Install XAMPP. My install of choice is the "Lite" version from SourceForge: "xampp-portable-win32-5.6.3-0-VC11.7z"
2. Unzip and put xampp folder to the drive of choice (C:)
3. Unzip the file: GetSimpleCMS_3.3.4.zip This will give you a folder GetSimpleCMS_3.3.4. Inside this folder is another folder with the same name (this one has the files)
4. For simplicity, rename internal GetSimpleCMS_3.3.4 folder to getsimple
5. Put the getsimple folder into C:\xampp\htdocs\
6. Fire up XAMPP and get Apache and MySQL running
7. In your browser, type: https://localhost/getsimple/admin/
