I would recommend that you base your choice primarily on your comfort with the product. If you find that administering IIS is easier, then use it. If you anticipate needing SSL in the future, you might use IIS. If you have multiple servers to keep configured in a cluster, Apache might be easier. If you have a friend who is really good with Apache, then it might be the best.
