 * Thanks Mark – Everyone’s suggestions have been great and gave me a peak into 
   the direction I want to try. I am going to take a few days and play around with
   this and attempt to come up with a solid test and development environment, hope
   I don’t break anything. I let you all know. Again thanks you everyone for the
   help.

 * Actually what catacaustic said above is more of the direction I was thinking 
   of. We are just sticking our toe in the water regarding WP and looking at a single
   PC(WIN7) with multiple instances as a proof of concept. I installed XAMPP and
   WP and its working. I guest the big question is how to install WP in a separate
   folder with a different named DB without stepping on the original WP space. I
   just perused the forum for “instances” and it seems others have like questions.
   Looks like there should be a formal paper on this for different OSs. Any additional
   help would be great for this WP newbie.
