    The worlds fastest and best browser now for PCs!
    Safari incorporates everything that other browsers boast into a simple, easy to use little bundle. Although only in it's Beta stages, Safari is currently looking very promising!

      My dad has that on his Mac book. It's easy to use, but after using IE of FF it's hard to get used to.

        FF2 takes like 3 times longer to start up than IE7 on my PC. I still use FF from time to time since IE won't let me run Javascript, but not much else other than that. I don't really see a need for a new browser on my PC since it'll take just as long to load stuff on safari as it will in IE on my PC.

          Yaaaay, I always use Safari on the school Macs. IE takes absoloutely forever to start up.

            Why would anyone use Safari for Windows? The only reason people use it for Mac is because it comes with the system.

                  How? Safari doesn't even have plugins for goodness sake.

                  I don't claim to be any sort of expert, I don't have extensive experience with Macs, but can anyone give me one good reason to use Safari over Firefox?

                            Just because something is made by apple doesn't mean its guaranteed to be superior. I can't see any advantages for using safari over FF (apart from the few less miliseconds it takes to load pages - and thats not worth the hassle of downloading it)

                            Plus, as Nyktos mentioned, as Firefox is generally the browser of choice for most clued-up internet users, it has a lot more options when it comes to themes, extensions, plug-ins etc.

                            Don't know where I'd be without Adblock + and NoScript.
