Sorry to resurrect a dying thread, but I've changed my mind. I used to
use MAMP on my local box, then I switched to XAMPP... And then I
needed MongoDB on my local box, and MAMP/XAMPP stopped being
sufficient.
But it turns out OS X does a pretty killer job of being a UNIX box all
by itself.
I've converted to native Apache, PHP, MySQL and Mongo -- the latter
two compiled from source, courtesy of Homebrew.
It takes about 10 minutes to set up, and is much awesomer (as long as
you're comfortable starting/stopping apache and mysql from the command
line).
