So, I spent yeaterday afternoon searching through the forums trying to find a solid answer to my question. I found parts of the answer but not a complete one. Here it is:

I'm developing a personal CMS, something that I can use to manage my content online from any PC. I've tried Joomla and a few others out there but I want to do something custom. My problem is around the format I want my pages to take, re: SEO.

The real question is whether or not i develop the site using only 1 or 2 templates + query and use Mod Re-write to change urls, or do I basically "bake" html files on publish.

To further clarify, does google really care about "physical" files or will a mod re-write serve the purpose.

modrewrite is fine. You really can't go wrong with URL's these days. Google has no problem with dynamic url's. The only thing you never want to do is have url's that change. Like sessions id's. I personally prefer to make all my pages look like page.html. I use modrewrite on lots of sites.
