If you go to http://www.totalvalidator.com/validator/ValidatorForm you
can get a screen shot of your page on several OS/browser combinations.
The Lynx 2.8 browser is available for both Windows and Linux OSs. It

desktop tool. Perhaps they think those who own expensive Mac computers
can well afford to pay something :-). I have had fairly good results
with Opera's voice command/reader feature. It will even do sex
changes. You can convert a page written by a man to a woman's voice.
