A few questions about multisite:

1. Same codebase for all sites. Does this mean different sites can have different themes?

2. Is there a separate SQL DB for each site, or all in one DB?

3. Can each site be at a different domain?

Thanks!

1. Yes
2. Not sure
3. Yes

Might actually be easier to just do them all separately with an installation profile. With 7's auto updating modules....

The Multi Site stuff when I have looked into it gets nerdy fast.

it's all done in the 'sites' directory

1. different themes if you want them.

2. You can use separate databases, or use a single database with prefixes, or a combination if you want some fields to be accessable to more than one of the sites (e.g. registered users)

3. Yes you can use separate domains, or separate subdomains of the same domain.

See the 'settings.php" file for explanation of some of the options
