    Yes you can !!
    Just replace the localhost with your own ip address and try to access it from different computer !!.

    Yes you can use it but there are few issues you have to take into account.

    1. Generally your internet service provider provides only dynamic IP which changes everytime you connect and re-connect to internet. So you need a static IP.

    2. There is a bandwidth issue also.Unlimited plans also comes with hidden bandwidth limits.Have check on that too.

    3. Security is the major issue.

    Then just install any webserver and you are on to web 😀

    Well I thought you want to use your system as global server but if you are looking to use it locally just install any server package , apache is the best. localhost or ip address do not matter in that case
