Exactly, it's just another twist on the "which came first, the chicken or the egg" question.Just because your paranoid doesn't mean there not out to get you!

Chrome, Opera, and Safari are such great browsers; Chomre being the best for me, but still they can't beat Firefox. I wonder...
Yeah, Speed, blah blah blah.... Let's talk about OVERALL: Speed, stability and usability.Firefox is king when those three are concerned.

Been using Safari 5 on windows. Beside its speed, there is really nothing to distinguish it from the other browsers. Safari reader to me is an distraction b/c it blocks everything including relevant materials like the news video's posted with the articles.
It probably has the worst GUI responsiveness in Windows with Safari momentarily freezing (1-2 seconds) when it is rendering javascript heavy websites. Everything else it does is roughly comparable to all the other major browsers. Also all the HTML 5 stuff underhood is not even utilized by any websites b/c of Safari's minuscule market share.
In fact I went into "IPAD MODE", turning off all proprietary plugins, and went to youtube, turned on the HTML 5 player beta, then the first notice I receive when I try to watch a youtube video is "flash not installed."
The whole experience just screams "eh...ok." If you already using Safari, then continue to use it. If you are using other browsers then Safari 5 really bring anything new to the table.
