for spoofing not only the browser ID, but the platform.  I keep an
archive of downloadable software for troubleshooting work, and that
includes some Mac content.  Some sites that offer both Windows and Mac
versions are aggressive in trying to figure out the platform by sniffing
the UA string.  Thus, if I want to get a Mac download in Windows (or
Linux), I have to spoof that the platform is Mac.

Smithy, do you then use the Mac software in a Virtual Machine or some such on your Windows/Linux physical machine??
