Earlier quoted context omitted.

What about testing on Windows?

With the exception of fonts there should be virtually 0 rendering differences between osx and windows versions of the same browser.

I've run into the situation more times than I can count where there was some little display difference between, for example, FF on OSX and FF on Windows. Always pays to spend the short amount of extra time needed to test across operating systems.

Might be OT, but does anyone know of a similar service for MOBILE browsers?

Obviously Android and iOS are webkit based... but what about the horror that is BlackBerry rendering?

My invite request got approved right after the request, but the service isn't working for me :(

All I get is "Oops! We have run into a small problem. Please try again." over and over again.

Overloaded?
