Browser testing questions

Does anyone know the best way to test a site in all of the major browsers on a non-Intel Mac? I am reluctant to download Firefox 3 yet, because I don't want the ability to test in 2 (Ridiculous, I know).

I'm operating on a PowerBook G4 with Firefox and Safari. I have an old PC that I test IE6 on, and borrow someone's newer PC for IE7. Since I don't have an Intel Mac, does anyone have a good suggestion as to how I could make this process more centralized and less time consuming? Thanks!

You could let http://browsershots.org/ do all the hard work of testing browsers for you. Getting an Intel Mac would also centralize things wink
