I check my outputs firstly in Safari, then I have an ol' windows laptop next to my G5 to windows test, this has multiple IE versions installed because as you will know, not everything that works in IE 6 will work with 5.5 etc
Overall though, the time I save by not constantly fixing things and messing around wondering why the hell IE 6 doesn't know that css dotted doesn't mean dashed, really does make up for the 2 seconds it takes for me to swizz my chair round to look at the site on the laptop run off OSX's built in Apache server
