I go through this about every 6 months. I keep thinking that if I use an
IDE for PHP development, or some kind of combination PHP IDE/HTML editor
that it will speed things up.

I've found that I'm faster just using something simple that has syntax
highlighting. I use "Kate"  on RHEL Workstation, for all my development.
I also run Apache on the localhost.  By switching from one virtual
desktop to another, I can develop and test very rapidly.  Typically, I
run 8-10 desktops.
