Here’s a great post from my team-mate (comrade on my big Magento project) on how to setup Magento on Mac OSX. I personally use MAMP on my MAC but I think I will reconfigure my MAC to use Zend Server.

Alright, sorry for the super long delay on this part 2. I’ve been really bogged down with several projects and one of them is a quite large Magento Enterprise implementation (crossing my finger that the site is launching in a week). I will announce it on my blog when that happens.
Anyway, the second [...]
One of the strength of Magento is the architect of the data layer vertically which allows us to create dynamic attributes. They call this design by EAV structure. With this data architecture, the SQL query to find out a particular attribute values or names can be a challenging task.

AspDotNetStorefront executives unveiled the product map for Ashland at the conference, which proved this was a major release for the platform and a critical foundation for their Enterprise-level support. Guidance is proud to be AspDotNetStorefront’s first Enterprise-level partner.
