Use at you own risk!" clearly shows. And anyway, MAMP has a better control widget!
I'm 80% sure that you can ignore the need to edit that file mentioned on p.37. Remember that OSX is a close relation of Linux, Windows isn't. So there is much more bending of Windows needed to get it to run like it's a server, than is needed for OSX. I don't recall having had to do anything like this to get either XAMPP or MAMP running as localhost.
