BTW, as apache2 and php are specifically mentioned here,  it might be
good to know that it's also possible to run (and learn)
Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP on the Android devices they own (e.g., standard
smartphones and tablets.)

Quoting Dmitri Popov at
www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Features/Convert-an-Android-Device-to-Linux
:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Installing a regular Linux distribution on an Android device opens a
whole new world of possibilities. You can turn your Android device into
a full-blown Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP server and run web-based
applications on it, install and use your favorite Linux tools, and even
run a graphical desktop environment. In short, having a Linux distro on
an Android device can come in handy in many situations.
