To many times I have made what I thought was perfect on localhost just to hang it and have the bottom fall out.
As joe said, you can get a vps for around $5 usd a month I wouldn't try to run a tracker from it, but you will find every damn bug there is in a code on a server, also you will find that when you think you got it so fast that it will beat everyone, hang it and you will find out that it is slow, not compatible with every browser (read ie explorer) and linux servers treat things way different then windows or linux localhost does. The time you will save will cover the cost of a small vps some where instantly.
hehe need a server host and not a pc but if he wants it we can only but help but not be very good at all error after error he will get
