I just found: browsershots (dot) org

Its a site that browses (your) site and takes screen shot(s) I did a test using 65 different setups simultaneously, but as I understands it its capable to test a site using 100+ Browsers & OS combinations as well! It's not ultra quick but it will give a good hint as to what browsers your site supports and what browsers it doesn't support. Have you tried out this service or do you use something else to test browser comparability and what is your opinion about this?

I simply installed opera, chrome, and firefox on my computer and use IETester for the various internet explorers. Seems to work for me.

me too, I have chrome, ff, and IE installed. I have a group of friends on a list in fb who have other browsers and so I just send them a link and ask them all to check it out and let me know if it's working or not.. lazy I know. I've still bookmarked this though. I like that you can select specific ones, even OS.
