-= Safari for Windows =-
well i'm writing this post from Apple's Safari browser Beta 3 for Windows. I've been using it now all day and I have to say I'll be switiching back to FireFox tomorrow.
The Good Points:
- It's great for development use. ie I can now check a website displays properly on a mac without having to use one.
- It's clean and pretty and the font smoothing is really nice.
- It's fast.
The Bad Points:
- Ad blocking is a little sporadic
- The scrolling is too slow
- Its completely un-customisable
- The RSS is not as good as LiveLinks in FireFox
- Theres no home button on the Beta
- There's no drop down menu on the back button
- There's no drop down menu on the address bar
All in all I will keep it to test websites I make, but it won't be my default browser.
If you look at the videos on the apple site, they haven't even got safari as their default browser... and I wonder why?
