  Old  fastest way to check IE on mac

what's the fastest way to check if our website looks good on IE 6 and 7 on a
mac? I'm that kind of person who check my website in IE like 20 times when I code it to make sure it always looks good and if not I can spot the problem faster. Dual boot on mac would be slow, anyone have a fast technique ?
thanks!

Use Parallels or VMware.

Well, you shouldn't need to check it more than once if you are coding properly, but Parallels will sort you just fine. Or browsercam.

Your post was confusing to me. At first you suggested that you were using windows, and wanted to test your code on IE Mac.

So you have a Mac, and want to check on stuff in IE Windows.

Parallels

Wrong. IE6 and lower are horrible and generally don't render the page as it should render.

IE on PC and Mac render their effects the same way. The only major browser for Mac that you should check is Safari, but even that's been made Windows compatible now.
