A big thing to watch when coding for web pages on a mac is the pixel size, pictures (especially) display smaller on PCs because on the mac screen the dpi is about 72 while it is over 90 on PCs. This is a major source of tranfer inelegance. A picture that has a presence on a mac sometimes appears a bit shrunken on a PC (the PC packing more of the pixels into a smaller area). The same thing goes for tables and so on. Work arounds are many. View on a PC and get feedback and make compromises, use percentages in table specs, attend carefully to stylesheet specs for font sizes etc.
Fairly important topic this, the whole world uses PCs except this tiny little band - us!
