Matt:

MySQL and PHP are both 'server-side' components, so there is no need to
instal them locally (unless, of course, you want to do your development and
testing off-line).

If you are doing any significant level of PHP work, I would suggest
installing a local version of both MySQL and PHP. I have local versions
installed on both WinNT and Linux machines on the network ... everything
gets tested on both platforms before it goes live.
