 * My current website is a wordpress site, and I’d like to add a “sandbox” (multiple
   instance of WordPress) on my current site. Some of my friends have asked me to
   develop WordPress sites for them, and I’d like a development environment.

 * Thank you. The question was implied, “How do I set it up?” I think you’ve answered
   that. I’m using IPower, which has a way to quickly and automatically install 
   WordPress. I’m assuming it will set up a second database for the new installation.
   Is that correct? (notice I did include a question this time 🙂

 * if you change the table prefix inside wp-config.php, yes it will 🙂

 * Thank you very much! I see that there is a comment in the wp-config.php file 
   that says exactly what you just told me. I think this takes care of the question.
