Had you actually read the specs that I've linked to you'd found out that the numerical equivalent of "bold" is 700. I.e., any value between 400 and 600 is interpreted as "normal." (rubeus has never claimed that 500 is equivalent to "bold.")

If you still don't believe me try the following code:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"

  <title></title>
  <style type="text/css">
/*<![CDATA[*/
  span {font-weight: 700; }
  /*]]>*/
  </style>
</head>

<body>
  <h3>font-weight test</h3>

  <p>This is <span>bold text</span>.</p>
</body>
