FireFox is good for testing since stuff looks almost identical in both the Mac and PC version.
I do have VirtualPC on my drive for testing. It's slow but the nice thing is that it is just a disk image file so if it gets a virus or something I just toss the image and grab a fresh on.
I'm guessing that next year when Macs start shipping using an Intel processor that Wine will work with Mac X just the way it does with Linux so no more having to use VirtualPC.
We keep a PC running XP over at Angel's place for testing and to run Yahoo video chat since she likes to play in the chat rooms and is Windows only. At least once a year the PC becomes unusable do to viruses and she just buys a new one.
Seems like if I check my pages in Safari, Firefox, and the old version of Mac IE they display properly in everything.
