I always used to use http://browsershots.org/ for this kind of testing, no idea what it's like thesedays, though.

Re:Testing
Why don't you just use http://browsershots.org/ ?

Browsershots
Try http://browsershots.org/ It's not going to help with testing functionality, but it'll definitely help with layout.

Acceptable in IE6
The way I approach IE6 is to get it to an "acceptable" level of usability but not go out of my way to make it look as good as say the latest Firefox. For instance, I don't put any PNG transparency hacks, etc.
At my site, ~40% of my traffic is Firefox, ~30% is IE of which ~5% is IE6 (or below...all grouped together). FWIW, I used the YUI as a reference design for my layout and using BrowserShots nearly every browsers handles the layout (more or less) correctly. -

Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3 also lists the results for the developversions of browsers:

Both browsers have problems
While I prefer Firefox myself, I got into trouble with both IE and Firefox. As a hobby project, I run a website about my university cafeteria: You can retrieve the menu there in various forms, including a web page, RSS feeds, and a CSV interface. For this interface, I created a firefox extension using XUL. If you want to try it, be warned: XUL documentation is either non existing, or outdated. developing consisted mainly of trial and error (and of course skimming other extension, which probably did the same).
On the other hand, IE has massive trouble displaying the page: While Konqueror, Mozilla, Firefox, Safari all do fine, every version of IE does something wrong - and never the same thing: Check Browsershots.org for the horror gallery (and yes, the site is XHTML and CSS compliant). -

Re:Easier than Networking!
Off-topic, but for the record: BrowserShots is a free service for this. It takes awhile, but it works.

Re:Just in case it *is* brokenHere's a suggestion: Look at your site in Firefox before trumpeting how great you are on web standards.
Or, at a minimum, use browsershots.org.

Where'd you get $3,000?
can the latter category necessarily afford a $3,000 expense every three years to buy a commodity PC with a newer Windows OS and the newer hardware it requires and a Mac with a newer Mac OS X and the newer hardware it requires?
If all you need to do is test websites, you don't need the latest and greatest hardware. Get a cheap $300 PC. It'll have the latest version of Windows. It won't run nifty games, but it'll handle IE7 fine. Buy a Mac Mini for $600. Get a KVM switch (a one-time expense) so you can share the keyboard, mouse and monitor. Now your expenses are more like $900 every three years.
And if you really don't want to buy new computers, there are sites like BrowserCam, , Browsershots, and iCapture that will at least test layout on other platforms.

Re:I can run only Firefox, IE 6, and Opera

On following sites you can test your webpage via an online renderer
For IE 6 and 7: http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/
For Safari: http://www.danvine.com/icapture/
For Firefox and many others: http://browsershots.org/

Re:Security patches
Everyone working on websites should test their browser with an (X)HTML validator, a CSS validator, IE5/IE6/IE7, Firefox, Opera, Safari. However, not everyone has access to Windows/Linux/Mac OS X.
I suggest using Browsershots.org. -
It works, but...
My AOL will work in Firefox, Safari and other browsers
It works, but the layout of http://startpage.aol.com/beta.adp is seriously b0rked in Safari. Text layout is the biggest problem - text overflowing the little graphical boundaries on the page, horrible vertical alignment, etc.
Here's a screen shot. Not pretty at all. Submitting it to Browsershots (screen shots of a site rendered in all major browsers) should be interesting.
