install apache and php and maybe mysql. It is relatively trivial to get
a server running.

more or less indentical., with te proviso that server farms may hand you
a slightly different version/configuration

valid assumption.

no. run virtualbox and an ageing copy of IE6/XP in it like wot I do..

actually when it comes to e.g fine tuning mysql queries for speed its
the better test bed. The only difference is you have massive bandwidth
locally, but that is just a question of keeping data sizes as low as

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
