Without telling us which browsers you use, we cannot give you any answer.
Plus, it doesn't depend on the OS, MacOS X just uses a different default browser. I'd load the page with FireFox, Safari and (if you have access to a PC) with IE.
Do not use Internet Explorer to check whether your CSS code is correct! A beta of IE8 has just passed the
ACID2 test which virtually every other modern browser has passed for years and there is lots of progress on
ACID3. The ACID tests are standards compliance tests with respect to HTML, CSS, etc.
