    Safari browser

    has anybody tried Apple's Safari browser on their XP or Vista PC yet? what do you think? is it any good/better/faster/more secure than IE7 or Firefox 2.0? any comments or advice? should we all be having it?

    why don't you download it and give it a go? Afterall you can run as many browsers as you like and if you like it then use it, if not then Start > Control panel > add or remove programmes......
