I use OSX for my CakePHP sandbox. save yourself the trouble and use
MAMP. The pseudo LAMP setup in OSX just doesn't work well out of box
for a real  developer's sandbox. You might want to give MAMP Pro a
try. Its free for 30 days. The damn thing makes managing PHP+MySQL
+host files (etc/hosts)+Apache+VHosts so easy. I actually paid for pro
but the regular free version is good too...Maybe I should write an
article on my blog about it.
