I`ll be honest…. It’s not bad.
I’ve been using it quite a bit this week, I’m currently flipping between textmate and other text editors seeing what I like, I’m not going to make a switch by any means but its good to know.
I’ve also bootcamped it with windows 7 (which is awesome
) and its running fine.
I currently work on about 4 seperate machines, it would be nice to be able to sync documents and work between them without resorting to SVN or a VPN but I can work with it
Also… whats going on with MAMP? I liked the look of MAMP Pro on the website but cannot find a bloody price for it?

To be honest: MAMP Pro is easy (I got the pro version, don’t ask me how), but in the long run it might be useful to set up your own proper Apache 2 + PHP5 + MySQL5 setup, as Mamp is starting to get older and older and harder to get to work with some other extensions, etc.
I found MAMP Pro pricing just by going to the web site and choosing “Buy MAMP Pro at our shop” in the upper right of the page. It’s £36.84 inc. VAT.
But personaly I’d go with Cristiano’s suggestion of rolling your own Apache/PHP/MySQL install. Alternatively, use VirtualBox (free) or Parallels (paid) and run Linux on top of the OS. You can even share files between OSs.
Have you thought about using something like Dropbox to sync files between machines? I use it all the time. Download it here: https://www.getdropbox.com/referrals/NTEyMzYyOQ
Leeky beat me to it!
Of all the online syncing.storage services I’ve tried, Dropbox just works.
I’d like to third that DropBox recommendation
.-= Cristiano Betta´s last blog ..@NickSwain no =-.
@Cristiano Indeedy, not too sure about compiling it myself but if MAMP normal seems like its not powerful enough, I will do.
Leeky, Yep indeed, trying dropbox now although it doesn’t seem to want my .docx file
Nik, Thanks Nik am trailing the service now
My development stack of choice is XAMPP.
If you want a helper app for setting up Apache virtual hosts then virtualhost-sh will do the trick for you, there is VirtualHostX if you prefer a GUI that will also start/stop XAMPP/MAMP(or built-in apache) for you and it’s only $19.
For syncing between everywhere – tried DropBox?
