I keep a WinXP box running in a vm on my Fedora 7 (yes, due to be upgraded), then anytime I need windows I can just use KRDC to show the desktop and test all the browsers there.

I'm really getting tired of these windows problems.  2 viri [spell] in less than a year.  In about 2000 I went M$ free for about 8 months.  I tried it again in 2007 for a month or two.

The main issue I have is I am a LAMP dev and find it awkward to run IE in wine.  I need IE to test how things look and work in IE.  The other issue I had is I really like PSpad.  It is my favorite editor.  

I spend so much time in Linux anymore it almost makes sense to go M$ free.

How do you check how sites resulve in IE if you run only linux?

Thanks in advance!
