I agree. I bought recently a macbook, and I am using virtualbox on macosx. My virtual machine is a debian minimal LAMP system, with docroot mounted via NFS on my host mac, where I use netbeans to develop. The advantages are: - dev and prod environments are identical; - you start the virtual machine only when you need it; - I don't need to sync any files anywhere; Bye -- Giovanni "scorp" Toraldo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony users" group.
