I just installed Ubuntu as my core operating system and am having a bit of a panic.. Are there any strategy for making the fonts/browser defaults for browsers (and the OS in general) render similarly to Windows Vista or Mac OSX? I'm afraid accurate web design work in this environment will be total guess work..

A: 

A suggestion is using tools like this one http://browsershots.org/ ; they are very slow, but can be handy sometimes.

what about for offline/localhost testing?

for offline testing you could install the windows/osx fonts and change the defaults, but i doubt they would render exactly as they should. another solution is using virtualization software and installing the needed os
