I would love to install Apache on my laptop/windows7 for a development server, but have no idea how to set it up where I can put the 192.168.1.8 testdomain.com in the hosts file and then add the website in Apache because IIS only allows 1 default site unless its running on a server. Anyone have

Terry, you edit the hosts file exactly as you do now, it makes no difference that you are using Apache. The hosts file is simply telling your machine to resolve a domain to a specific IP address, e.g. your local machine. IIS6 only allows 1 site to be active at a time, but you can have multiple
