MySQL/Apache/PHP4 on MacOS X Beta

At http://homepage.mac.com/LightyearDesign/MacOSX/ there are step-by-step instructions on how to to install MySQL, Apache and PHP4 into Mac OS X:

"This document describes my approach to building mySQL, then Apache and PHP4. The special thing about by Apache installation here is that it's installed in the native directories it was found in under MacOS X Beta (/Library/Webserver/*)."

For any web/unix folk - this is a powerful combination. (MacRumors.com is running a a Linux machine with MySQL/Apache/PHP3). This is where the beauty of Mac OS X comes into play. Games, Browsers and Tools will certainly come, and make Mac OS X fun and easy... but having access to these distributions - that makes it insane...
