Test site design hosted locally on my computer?

I'm a first time user of cube cart and would like to customise and skin my site before I put it on the web. (As a practice for when I do the final site.)

Can I just install it locally on my computer (how do I do this and what do I require)or do I have to upload it to my web space. At this time I just want to design it as I do not have any stock to put into the database.

Any help much appreciated

Or you can use what I use: ApacheFriends has everything build in that you need. After setup all you need to do is switch back to php 4 with "php-switch.bat".... easy as pie, works straight out of the box.
