Indeed, if you're dev environment is not a server, and you're working on a desktop/laptop look at this for creating multiple sites in IIS:
http://www.gafvert.info/iis/article/multiple_websites_xp.htm Then, create a seperate domain for each site in your hosts file, resolving it to 127.0.0.1 i.e. 127.0.0.1 localhost.mysite1 127.0.0.1 localhost.mysite2 ... I don't recall exactly where the hosts file sits on windows, system32 somewhere I think... Create each site in IIS with the corresponding host header (localhost.mysite1, etc) and you are good to go with multiple sites with local, root domains.
