In my attempts to run phpMyAdmin on my development Mac I found this tutorial but, alas, it didn’t work.

So you found yourself in need of a development server (or maybe a regular production server) on your Mac… Well, good for you, because your mac can do it all. I found myself in need of it as well and wanted a stable Apache2/PHP5/MySQL installation with the PHP SVN PECL module installed. (because I want to fool around with our SVN server :) )

I found myself in a situation where I wanted to upgrade my Macbook Pro to OSX 10.7 Lion, but unable to do so due to a malfunctioning Firewire controller.

Hi there.
This is my first blog-entry, well, it’s a little pathetic, actually, it’s just a simple note to say “Hi there and welcome!”
In the coming days, weeks, months, I will be updating the theme of this blog and eventually let you know the technical issues I have been dealing with in my time as WebDeveloper. Wether it is at all interesting to you, I’ll have to leave that up to you all, so, feel free to comment; any and all remarks are welcome.
Yours,
Remon.
