I’m a newer-than-noob Linux user switching in from Microsoftland. Back there, I needed IIS on a Windows Server in order to run multiple dev and beta web sites simultaneously, and used SQL Server for the databases.
I’m looking at switching what I do to Ubuntu now, and see they offer a desktop and server version. Would I need the server to run web services on multiple dev site projects, or can those be hosted (locally) on the desktop version?
Also, what’s the standard database app for Linux/Unix hosted web sites? Again, would that be runnable on desktop, or does it need the server?
I’m looking for free applications, or as cheap as possible. Thanks, and looking forward to being here.

I Have Worked 5+ Years As Web Apps Developer. Would Having Pmp Cert Help Me Make More $$$s?
I make over $60,000 per year as a free-lance SQL / VB / C++ developer and no one has yet asked me what certifications I have. They only want to see what I have done in the past and, occasionally, my client list.
