http://www.browsercam.com/

lets you see your site in all manner of browsers and platforms. I'm interested purely because a lot of tutorials say stuff about IE on mac doing weird things. However much I would like a mac I cannot really afford it....

Then again browser cam isn't cheap. Has anyone had any dealings with this service?

No, but I was actually looking at it last week and used the free trial for a day. Pretty interesting, but most of my websites came through decently, so I just left and went back to work. LOL.

Yeah I was thinking that if you have got problems, sorting a workaround might take longer than an hour, and it's not cheap for the month. Maybe we could get some people together and get an ozzu account with loadsa usernames :lol:

I'll be leaving it for the timebeing, I can test all the browsers on windows and linux, so it's just those pesky mac users (and even then some of them will be using gecko browsers).

lol @ rtm! I can't believe YOU would want a Powerbook.

I'm lucky, I've got a guy at my office who uses a mac. He keeps a varitey of mac browsers, so I get to do pretty thorough testings.

It's just that you seem so "open-source", and apart from adopting the Linux kernel, Macs seem so "closed-source". I'm just surprised, really.

:)

Awwww shucks!!! I forgot my PayPal password...

I'm not against closed source. I'm just not keen on microsoft products :lol: I find windows buggy (all versions I have tried) and a pain in the ass, Visual BASIC and homepage are a bloody joke, and office is just the same as any other office software (except that it incorporates VBA - which is even worse than normal VB).

I have never used a single microsoft app that made me think "wow this is a really good piece of software". most of the pieces of software that have stuck me as being really good originate from mac or FOSS.

I think that open source is a good idea, simply for the fact that most open source software has to "prove itself" before it gets accepted. Microsoft sell because of a brand name.

Well, as soon as you remember it, I don't mind waiting a week or two :wink:

lol @ rtm on the scroung!

BTW if you send a lot of money via the internet i would highly recomend nochex, i got an account with them and on my site people can pay me with nochex and they dont have to be registered which has saved me a lot of hassle, they are also in the uk which mean it takes less to get the money in your bank.

Anyway enough of me babbleing on! Lol
