Fair enough. I can't imagine a host these days that doesn't give you a dedicated VM sandbox though. There are hosts out there that put all the fish in the same pond?! Wow. I certainly wouldn't trust that scenario with my data/site. > The events will also fire the same whether the > server is running Unix or Windows. People really use Windows for a mySQL server? Weird. It just seems so clunky. Don't get me wrong. I love XP. I run it on all my 12+ notebooks, netbooks, desktops, etc. But for any LAMP dev work, I either have a dedicated Linux box setup or a Virtual Machine. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
