Well, after reading the review done by Mojokarl on the latest Apple Safari, I downloaded and installed it few hours ago. It sure runs slightly faster than IE and Firefox, but still loses to Opera. Maybe because it’s not meant to be part of Windows OS (yet). Once I test run it with Hamachi, a community-developed utility for verifying browser integrity, written by H. D. Moore and Aviv Raff, i received couples of memory corruption errors in 3 minutes and the browser crashed for several times. But to be fair, since this is a BETA version, the bugs or problems can be tolerated. Nonetheless, the key to Safari is its fast rendering, pages load in a zippy and i still think it runs better in Mac OS! So, to say which browser is better or the best, i think there is no one specific winner, as each browser is designed to fit a specific set of features/expectations. Anyhow, hope Apple would fix the bugs in Safari and stop boasting that it is flawless (Typical Steve Job’s marketing style!! Haha).

And by the way, Tabbed browsing is not ORIGINALLY from Safari, as many might have claimed. The first real tabbed browser with any significant presence on the web was Netcaptor (running as IE shell), created by the very talented Adam Stiles way back in 1997. It was then improved in Mozilla’s first release. But it was Opera Browser that makes Tabbed browsing popular (in their version 4 release) before Firefox, Konqueror, and Safari introduced it in 2003 and of course IE7 in 2006.

For IE 7 lovers, you surely need to download IE7Pro plugin that will change the IE browsing experience! Who needs other browsers in Windows when you have IE7Pro! Ahaks… ;-p
