I use the stock OS X install for development.

MySQL is used by PHP and a lot of other users so it makes sense for Rackspace.  
That does not mean it is better in general or better for you.  Personally, I 
like the ease of FrontBase.  I am unsure what running that on a Rackspace 
server would entail.

The older version is more likely to be stable.

The older version is more likely to be stable.  If I were you, my goal would be 
stable.
