@Brady J. Frey & Joe Clark:
I never done any debugging for IE/Mac, so this is a kind of challenge. However (and as much as i hate this), i might finish up with slightly simplified version of layout served for that particular browser only.

Do keep in mind that OS 9 and earlier users have no real options for standards-compliant or even remotely-modern broswers other than IE 5.

Yeah, same situation with Macs here. Too expensive compared to USA and average income.

I’ve been a strong mac user for seven years now, and a CSS developer… we don’t use mac IE. If there are mac users who do; they’re probably not mac users. Much less, I don’t know any mac users who don’t have multiple browsers.

In short, while you should make sure mac IE users see your content, never worry about coding for them, let it break. It’s not worth the cost, hassle, or headache:)

Well, I’m currently selling my audio setup, and my father is somewhere on atlantic ocean on it’s way to america, so there is a chance (if I sell audio components) that he buy me a Mac mini :)

@Denver: Unfortunately, this G5 is not ‘mine’—it’s only in my office for a week or two, untill i fix the site.

@Gabriel: I’ve been thinking about ‘the Austria combination’, and also—buying second-hand G4 sounds like affordable alternative. I might give it a thought.

@Šime: I saw it! : )

I payed $700 for a G4 Powerbook of an older generation, a few months ago, and I’ve very satisfied with it. If the LCD annoys me, I can connect it to my VGA display. You can look for simillar second-hand deals!

I have a friend that intends to go get a G5 Mac from Austria because there, the prices are almost the same as in the US.

I think I’ll finance a iMac and a iPod Shuffle when OS X 1.04 comes out, and pay them over the next 2-3 years. The monthly payments should be OK, if I can find a bank with a low interest rate for personal purchases…

I wish I had even G 0,001 :) Still I can’t afford to even look at this on our Polish shop shelves. Would you be so kind so as to put some your awesome photos of your G5?
