WINDOWS "HALF" COLOR MANAGEMENT DISCLAIMER (Source> sRGB): Take notice some Windows color-managed applications Convert tagged elements to sRGB (not the monitor profile).
SOURCE> sRGB
My tests (late 2012) included so-called "color-managed" Windows versions of Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer IE, which all displayed the PDI tagged reference images with oversaturated reds on a wide gamut monitor. Firefox with its Value1 enabled was the only Windows browser that displayed with "Full Color Management" (Source> Monitor).
So, while color-managed Windows browsers will likely "match" the above rollovers, they may only be Converting to the sRGB profile (Source> sRGB). And they may not be displaying "accurately" like Photoshop and Firefox's "Full Color Management" do (Source> Monitor RGB).
Software updates and user settings may change how my reference images display so be sure to perform your own tests to prove or disprove my theories on your devices.
Windows Firefox with it's Value 1 Full Color Management setting enabled is the one exception Firefox on both OSX and Windows Converts to the monitor profile (Source> Monitor Profile) for color "accuracy" the same as Photoshop.
If you are using Windows and want Photoshop quality color accuracy in your Web browser Firefox (Value 1) is your only option because it's the only Windows color-managed Web browser that transforms (Converts) the all source colors to the monitor profile like Adobe Photoshop.
