Just noticed today a beta version of Safari (the Apple browser) was released...

It is fast, starts up fast and everything, but it loads pages very very badly! just look at this! Shocked

...

Definately staying with FF2/Opera.

Hmmm, it seems to have a problem with bold type and supporting higher resolutions. But hey, that's why it's a Beta version.
