Hi;
I just installed Apple's Safari for Windows Beat.
It looks good, and is faster than Firefox 2.x, which I have been using for about a year, but I am seeing some strange effects with black text on a white page.
Some characters appear to have colored edges, especially with the default font (Times New Roman).
I changed to Courrier New and the issue appears to be lessened, but not gone.
I have not noticed this problem when browsing with Firefox or IE 7.

It seems odd to me that a problem like this could be browser specific, since Windows uses the same fonts for all apps.

Perhaps this is just my imagination?

I am running a Viewsonic VX 2000 on a BFG NVidia GeForce 6800.

I don't expect that there are many Windows users of Safari so far, since the first Windows version is a Beta.

I am developing web pages in Dreamweaver, and installed Safari to test my pages on one more browser.

I`v just tried it.

It`s quick enough,but the bookmarks manager is hopeless.

It won`t tempt me from Opera.

Actually Safari (just like iTunes) does not follow the same visual cues set to all other Windows (at least on Windows). You have to change the settings within Safari for it to take those into account (font, etc.).

Opera? For Windows, or Mac?

I installed Opera, and so far it gets my vote!
I like the way Opera operates compared to IE, Firefox 2.0, and Safari.
I love the bookmark management tool. It took a few minutes to get used to using it, but once I did, it's really sweet.

I like using the feature to open previously opened tabs when Opera starts.
One issue I had with Safari is that when I tried to preview my Dreamweaver 8 web pages (from within DW) in it, the browser would only open to my home page. How useless is that!

Thanks for bringing my attention to Opera. I had never even heard of it!

I am too using the Beta on OS X and windows. I still like firefox
