There's almost no differences, except:
1. You cannot install phpBB through Fantastico or Softculous locally;
2. If you are using a machine running Microsoft Windows, the filesystem permission system is different from Unix/Linux. I think it's pretty similar to the situation that you set every file/directory to 777 on *nix systems, but I'm not so sure. (I believe Windows has some ways to overcome this (Access Control List?), but I don't really know.) A good aspect is you will almost never need to chmod files/directories anymore. The bad part is this will be a security issue.
