A fellow list member sent me this link: http://www.codo.com/browserola/ for 
Browserola -- it's a shareware thing, not too expensive and, I confess, 
I've used it once (oops, keep forgetting I have it now).

How accurate is it? I don't know -- I do know there are certain things one 
machine cannot ever emulate -- like the way colors are rendered on 
completely different systems (WebTV comes to mind since it's viewed on a 
television). WebTV does offer a viewer too and it's helpful if you 
anticipate much WebTV usage. But, remember, colors are going to be way 
different. It's available at http://developer.webtv.net/
