| 558316 | 2007-06-13 09:08:00 | Strange how experiences can differ so much. I use nothing else but Safari most times, solely because I have found it the fastest of all my browsers and never gives any problems. I also have Firefox, IE, Mozilla and Opera which I use occasionaly but prefer using Safari above all the others, not just because it is Apple but because it just works best for me. |

That said, I still don't think Safari on Windows is anywhere NEAR as good as it says it is, especially in relation to the quick comparisons it shows. I would think Opera beats out all those browsers in HTML performance (I'm not a big fan of Opera) as it always seems faster while surfing than any other browser, and yet it comes in last? | sal (67) | ||
| 558319 | 2007-06-13 09:53:00 | Fits with my experience on dial up, Firefox is fastest, then IE6 or Opera, depending on who knows what, then Safari. I don't find Opera that fast and compared to Firefox it is cumbersome and limited. May be different on broadband as far as speed goes. | zqwerty (97) | ||

I would think there would be too many varibles testing websites in a uncontrolled enviroment |

You see, Steve Jobs forgot to mention, anyone deserving enough to have a mac or run mac software, should really be using Broadband, you can't even buy a mac these day's with a dial up modem standard |
