internal webserver on home network

Hi,

I have a simple network 2X XP machines 1X NAS all going through my
router. I Want to turn a an old lap top into a web server so I can
test my web sites on the network. I'm going to be using a clean
install of XP pro, and on top of that installing Apache, My sql and
PHP.
Will the address to apache be the ip address of the laptop or will
apache need its own address? If the later is true how do I a) find it
and b) connect to it?

Many TIA

Paul
