Thanks everyone for the input. For the curious, it looks like I'm going to try and go the wine route.
Here's where I ended up with the other two routes: 1) Litmus: works great if things are mostly already working and you're going for a huge set of browsers. It will show you screenshots of what pages look like on up to 24 different browsers. Unfortunately, it has no interactivity, so you can't get to a dynamically created page, and you also can't 'play' by tweaking html/css/javascript on a particular browser until it works. My suggestion for litmus would be to use it as a final check on mature product that has already been totally cleaned up and give the reports to a client to give them that warm fuzzy they always want. In my case, I've never even looked at my product on IE and I know it's a total mess (probably not wise, but it is what it is). 2) Virutal PC images. Unfortunately these no longer work on mac/parallels. See http://blog.ryanparman.com/2009/01/07/run-ie6-ie7-ie8-images-vmware-fusion-macosx/ So it look like I'll be trying out wine (the software).
