Skip the installer for a Windows Service?

This talks about how to get one working which I do not finish out here, but honestly it looks kinda ghetto. It doesn't really seem to get us much. We could just run the .exe from out of the bin/Debug folder truth be told. One challenge with that is that you will need to copy more than just the bin/Debug folder to the server where you want the Windows Service to run. In my case, I just copied the whole of my code base into a folder there. The stuff the .exe needs to behave itself reaches beyond what is compiled into the bin/Debug folder.
