Is it dumb to develop for LAMP on WAMP?

Question

After becoming somewhat estranged open source, and spending some years developing web applications in ASP.Net, I\'m going to start doing quite a lot of PHP / MySQL development.

Answer 1

In theory, PHP and MySQL should be completely platform-independent.

In practice, if you're going to have a real production application, I suggest you to have a testing environment mirroring the production one, to avoid surprises.
