RE: Having IE6 and IE5.5 on the same machine

ThatÂ’s not entirely true, it is possible - I had a machine at my old
office runnings several versions of IE..

I will root around my tech articles to see how it was done.

Yeah, looks like I'm using VMWare.

BTW, in case anyone cares, IE6 actually cares about your !DOCTYPE
specification.  Yikes.

I know you said "don't say VMware", but your only options are:

1. VMware or similar virtual machine software
2. boot between multiple OSs (have fun with that)
3. find a cheap (free?) machine for a test platform

Personally, I'd recommend VMware, although having cheap machines around is
pretty good too. I don't use VMware for testing multiple IE versions, but
it'll certainly work for that, and I give it a big thumbs-up.
