It can be pretty annoying just to do site designs so they'll display looking like they should on different browsers... yeah, making it look similar when you're just using basic HTML is easy-ish, but try and get into CSS and DHTML and gah. Even certain table-building tags won't operate the same in IE and Netscape, to say nothing of other browsers.

Of course, that's nothing compared to what you're doing... I'm not a computer science major for a reason :)... but browsers are annoying enough just doing visual design, let alone more complex stuff.

Sosi"oh, and it makes doing QA on a big site REALLY ANNOYING"qui
