Apple's new beta of their Safari browser for Windoze? Everything looks kinda cool compared to anything else (i.e. borders, pull-downs, etc.)
Gotta admit, it's loads stuff faster than anything I've ever seen (even FF or Opera)..
But it crashed while trying to modify the toolbar...  |

I'm not too excited, as Safari isn't really that great on on OS X to begin with. Did you know that Safari is based on Konquerer (aka that browser that comes with KDE) |

As I began using it a little more last night (at work---great when you have admin. rights on your own machine ), it started feeling very "Firefox-ish". Still, I gotta admit, I've not seen any graphical browser render pages as fast. Were it not for having DSL, and if they had just a couple more things worked out (like offering pop-up/image blocking), I'd be tempted to make it a default. For me, it was more stable than Mozilla Firebird 0.7 when it first arrived (and I'm a HUGE Mozilla fan, so that's not easy for me to say...). I did browse around various tech sites and stability appeared to be the main problem other folks were having... |

I've never had a problem w/ Konquerer before, except the fact it's a mem hog.  |
