Ummm, aren't you building sites for your client's customers to use? It's
the internet you have to match browsers with, to make sure everything
works. And you don't have to rebuild your computer - that's the point.
It installs as an application and then you build the base installation
you want (e.g XP SP2) and clone it to give you platforms to test all
sorts and versions of browsers.

Well, if there was such a thing, I don't think we'd need web standards.
The reason most of us are here is because there isn't a standard
installation and we have to be able to cope with anything.

But which versions of FF and Safari, and which version of OSX? Is the
mac Intel or PPC? Is the PC running Vista? Will Aero make a difference
to base IE look and feel? i'd suggest that you need to think about these
things.

little wider.
Your call, though.
