Yes, worst browser EVER.

I've seriously never seen such a slow, buggy piece of crap in my life before :p

Internet explorer 4 is superior to it even and that's when MS was at the height of fucking up the internet with buggy, proprietary web features and so forth.

Agree with Xest, downloaded it & crashed it within 30 seconds!

That's a shame :(

From the reports I read, it looked very promising!

So...
Imagine for a moment they manage to get all the bugs sorted out...
Would it be any good then?

No it lacks features and has a horrible UI.

Can only resize the Window from the bottom right corner of it and crap like that.

I think apple are trying to kill microsoft, by making the whole world press the "do you want to report this to microsoft" button. Maybe "saint bill" will sue them for spam ;)
Seems to crash more often than it manages to display a page for me.

Seems like they are rushing it for it to be ready when the iPhone is released... which also runs Safari so they obviously want web devs to make sure that their site works with Safari.

I still haven't figured how web devs can make any difference when the program crashes before it gets to a web site though :)

Think the iPhone is a joke tbh.

Oooooh a phone that other than a touch screen does less than my old Nokia 7650 did 4, nearly 5 years ago. Think it's getting so much hype because North America is so behind on mobile technology so to them it is something special but honestly, here in Europe the iPhone is mediocre at best. Compared to a phone like the Nokia N95 with it's built in GPS and such it's worthless.

Apple should stick to making stylish laptops and MP3 players imo cos they suck royally at everything else :p
