G'day Ptc,
No issues with it? Checked versiontracker.com and seemed to be some, I'd get it just don't want to be stung. No 3rd party add ons to current version, so touch wood on the new one. Just looked, I need 10.4.11 and from I understand 11 is just as buggy as 10.5.2, I'll stay at the previous version.

I've found firefox to be a much better browser for Macs.
A lot of sites still don't have support for safari.

Just upgraded but can't say I notice any increase in speed.
Perhaps I've just been spoiled using Firefox on Linux

Very Impressed
PC Magazine gives 4 out of 5 stars to Safari...

And a Microsoft employee tries Apple’s Safari for Windows, finds ‘a certain Zen-like simplicity’...

I've had 10.4.11 since it was available (on my work laptop) and 10.5.2 since it was available (at home on the iMac) and wouldn't call either of them buggy. Originally Posted by Waldo

Safari 3.1 is noticeably faster on some of the sites I regularly visit, and no bugs so far! (One bug - uploading pics to blogger, but it's always been there. Blogger is the one site I've found where admin is better done on Firefox)
