Hi Christian, Your machine is fine. Opera renders the exact same thing as IE does, the difference is that I was able to use a Conditional Comment to take care of that "shift" in IE (I just won't make the extra effort for Opera). > I should also mention that these drop-shadows make me sick to my > stomach.
