Conditional comments don't work in IE Mac (only IE PC).  But you still have
a couple options:

1.  <link media="not all" .. /> (see
http://www.dithered.com/css_filters/html_only/link_media_negated.html) which
will apply an external .css file only in Mac IE 4.0 - 5.0, Opera 3.5, and
Konqueror 2.x.

2.  \property: value; (see
http://www.dithered.com/css_filters/css_only/escape_before_property.html)
which will apply the declaration to all browsers _except_ NS 4.x, Opera
3.5 - 5.x, iCab 2.x, OmniWeb <4.2, and Konqueror (but is limited to
properties whose names do not start with "a" thru "f").
