Yes and No.
You should test exact DOM methods - if they are supported or not.
You  *should not* test UserAgent to get browser capabilities.

I highly recommend you to read this:

|   IE behaves DIFFERENTLY on MAc than on PC..

Yes. Just because MS mixed browser version with Mac release. They should call 
MS IE 5.0 for mac as IE 5.1 or 5.6 - don't know how exactly it looks like in 
comparision with MS IE 5.5 for Windows.
AFAIK   MS IE 5.0 for Mac it the only browser which has full CSS1 support.
But, take a look on http://htmltests.newmail.ru, get Puzzle demo.

Both MS IE 5.0 on Mac and MS IE on Windows fail on it.
Konqueror, Mozilla display it correctly.
// CSS: { display: block } creates one block, so in reality you should not 
get a 3x3 matrix. You get it with MS IE 5.0 (win,mac)

The major reason why you should check Platform - for ActiveX elements support.
But DynAPI is not about ActiveX, is it?  :-)

BTW: There is another valid method to test platform.
Check navigator.platform in JS.
It will return win32 for NT and W98, win16 for Win3.1, MacPPC for Mac with 
PowerPC processor, and X11 for Linux/Xfree86.

Konqueror supports this method, as well as Netscape and MS IE.
Even Opera reports navigator.platform.
