Apple Safari on Windows

I stick with good ol' trusty IE7. I like it that it stores cookies so that I don't have to keep remembering pesky usernames and passwords for every website.

Only gripe is, if only I didn't have to click on every active X and Java imbed thingy to get them to work, it would be much handier if they ran automatically. Otherwise it does everything I need.

I have yet to come across a browser that doesn't do that - well maybe Lynx, but that doesn't really count.

Seems to ignore stylesheet background settings on my laptop. I see white backgrounds for some pages that have black backgrounds in Firefox and IE.....

It's only a developer pre-release at the moment, so there are bugs (on both Mac and Windows). This was announced at WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) so no-one should be using it in anger yet for anything other than playing with the developer APIs - this release contains the first standalone Windows port of the CoreGraphics API (I believe it's statically linked in iTunes) which is what will be used to display stuff on the iPhone.

IE7 is fine. Downloaded Safari, but speed is same. I have a fast PC and 4mb broadband so if there is a speed difference I can't pick it.

It does seem a little quicker to me, but i'm only really likely to use it to see what web pages look like in safari, I'll use Firefox for my day to day browsing.
