One for the web people, this guy has made the impossible possible. He has found a way to have IE5.01, 5.5 and 6 installed together under Windows XP, 2000, Server 2003, 98 and ME. (awe inspired gasp and eyes filled with hope…)
For those who aren’t aware, you can’t run different versions of Internet Explorer — on Windows. This causes incredible arse pains when web designers and developers need to test their work to make sure it’ll work in as many configurations as they’ve promised.
No more going onto this machine and then that one, and asking someone else how sites look and work, and bribing them, or just crossing fingers and offering virgin scarifices to the browser gods — please, please work, I beg you!
But I digress. I myself have not had the chance to try this out, but all the feed back on the site is incredibly positive.

It does work. I keep a copy of IE 5.0 on the laptop, so I can test sites there, but it is far handier to have three versions on one box. Try hitting Listamatic to test your installs out
