WordPress Install question #2 - Solved

So I can either run multiple installations of WordPress or use the MultipleSites plugin built into WordPress 3+

I would use the multi install plugin, saves you the trouble of updating separate installations.

Also I would recommend using this guide:

I have it running on my wordpress installations, and it is a major speed increase. Drop apache, its really not worth using, nginx/php-fpm and mysql work really well together.
