[joomla] Server2Go, GONE! How about XAMMP?

Maybe you don't need to worry but I have dozens of sites to manage. Your computer is not indestructible and it can also get stolen. 

Where do you put these backups?  On your computer or on a backup drive?  Every backup drive I've had has failed within months, so I don't count on them  either.  

I cannot afford to lose an entire day's work so I keep my remote webserver and local synchronized while I'm working.

That's when all those back up sessions come in handy! ;-)

And I've just found a component called JoomlaPack which is quite easy to
handle out of the box and backup a Joomla site.

So, why worry?

Yeah, working locally is great, until something happens to your computer
and you lose everything.

Hi all!

I've been trying out XAMPP in my Mac and it works like a charm! Easy
installation, easy GUI (could be improved).

Once started, it doesn't matter wether I close or not my browser, it's
still
there.

Database and Joomla installations are a breeze. And I've done those more
than once just to make sure.

I even realized how EASY it is to work on a Joomla site locally then
uploading it to a remote server!! ;-D

Yes - unfortunately. If you check the support forum, its had the full-on
spambot treatment.

Apparently the developer got sidetracked by another project, Symfony.

I'm a more hands-on kinda guy, but I can't get enough of macports. I
get everything, even the "hard stuff" that most folks never bother
trying on a Mac. I'd also like to point out to my good friend Gary
Mort that macports has...MongoDB. :-)
