MySQL installation help

I do Java EE 6 programming since not long ago. For my application server i use glassfishV3.0.

I decided not to use the derby/JavaDB that it came with the glassfish download,so i am moving to MySql database.

I am a bit confused, i think i should install MySql 5+, but which one?

5.1

...

or 5.5(This one seem to be the latest one).

Could you recommend me which one i should choose. And also it would be very handy a podcast, video or similar.. tutorial for the installation.

Just one more doubt: I do my programming in 开发者_开发知识库a winXP work station, is there any compatibility problem?
