It is super easy to setup. The ROI on this tool might be considered a no brainer for certain situations. A linux box is another way to go now that we have 64 bit Linux support in LC 7. If you are running LC on the server side for any reason, this is also a compelling scenario. If you are scaling your setup to *many* server boxes, the Linux route will be financially beneficial. If you are running a smaller quantity of servers on Macs, MAMP’s GUI makes setup a breeze. Choice options are always welcome.
