Is it possible to test websites in Mac browsers on a PC?

And if it's not, could someone buy me one of these pretty please, I'm sure I'll pay you back one day 0=)

hmm I wonder why Apple don't own apple.co.uk

You can get XP on a Mac via Boot Camp or Parallels.

I use Boot Camp on my MacBook and it works a treat. Although I seem to have to download some update or other every single time I boot into XP.

cjh: In theory you can at least get it working in a virtual machine.

I don't know how possible it really is without hours of time investment though since VMWare doesn't include an option for OSX.

I think you can install Mac OSX on to a PC ... or it might be install Windows XP on a MAC, I forget which way around that goes, sorry :)

Anyhow, if your site works in Firefox and Opera, chances are pretty good that Safari will play ball as well ... it's that Internet Explorer you have to watch out for :)

Thanks Garin, can I have a Mac Mini anyway?

Use this

There several other sites than do it, just google for them.
