Not sure if this is any use, but if you want a quick look at how your design looks on ie5.5, 6, 7 and 8 beta 2

It renders a screenshot while you wait, quite neat
Yes, I use that all the time.
It works pretty well, without the wait that you get with browsershots. But it will not tell you how hover sates or scripts are working though as all you get is an image...
no you are right, its not interactive but its fast, I didnt know browsershots was interactive, I thought that was just screenshots?

Which is correct: browsershots is interactive, or browsershots is static?

Static. It produces images of what renders on all their servers. The cool thing about Browsershots is that you can get site rendered images from like dozens of OS and browser combinataions.

On XP and Vista we use Microsoft’s free VPC and the free builds of XP with IE6 to test IE6. On the MAC, VMWARE and an image.
Mac > VMware > Windows XP SP2 > Internet Explorer 6
Multiple IE isn’t native enough, especially since you have to chop and change hacks to support Conditional Comments between IE6 and IE7 (without using custom CCs while in development).
"Internet Explorer is the greatest internet browser ever designed. It single-handedly allowed the internet to expand into the glorious universe it is today.
Other browsers like firef*ck should get down on its knees and strive to be more like IE. EVERY browser should be more like IE.
All this talk about standards is from a bunch of godless, America-hating communists who fail to understand that IE always has been and always will be THE STANDARD.
God Bless America, Microsoft, and the right to bear arms!"
This is soo awesome! Hope it’s real and not fake! I love the guy!
