carpenoctem Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I know the reason for mySql but If i want to take my laptop to people and say "Hey Look At My Site!!" and show it on my laptop, can i? My customers do not always have an internet connection available at that moment. so Can i download like a copy of the database... and just have it on the computer for "show" purposes?? If the answer is no, do you have any other suggestions? I appreciate the suggestions (i know that people can not purchase anything from the actual hard drive itself..... but i at least want them to be able to see my product) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticky Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 This should be possible once you have some kind of server installed, then add Apache/MySQL/PHP etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could always meet your customers somewhere that has a WiFi. An alternative would be to have jpgs of your product on your computer so you can show the customer. The best way, however, would be to have some of your product on hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
