Safari 5

[Jas0n]

I installed Safari 5 as Tye said it supposedly supposed to run faster on Windows. I tested out a few sites like apple.com, youtube.com, and some news sites and the loading times are very slow. It will load halfway, stop and continue to load.

The looks of Safari are not the greatest on Windows. The theme is very dark which is another thing I hate about it. But all the Safari's have had a dark theme. I'm pretty sure it can be changed on a Mac but I'm not sure if it can be done on a Windows. Also, YouTube doesn't run good on Safari as I see when typing this my video was halfway. IMO, I think Safari runs better on a Mac.

Inside of Safari. I dislike how you have to open up the News section and then click on the RSS Articles. I like how in Mozilla that you can just see the lastest headlines by just two clicks of a button! I'm not sure if this is added onto Safari but Safari doesn't show you your most visited sites. Something I have seen in a few browsers is that on the right side you can see your options menu but in IE and in FF it opens a window. This function in Safari and Google Chrome is much simpler if you want to do your private browsing.

I agree that Safari 5 runs horribly on Windows, Chrome is far better.

Safari 5 runs just fine on my Windows Vista partition on my MacBook Pro. It's not as fast as it is on my Mac OS X partition, but nothing on my Windows partition is as fast as my Mac partition, lol.

Also, there's a better way to do RSS. Save an RSS feed to your Bookmarks Bar, and it'll automatically update you of new posts. You can even create a folder in your Bookmarks Bar and put all of your RSS feeds in there, and you'll be able to keep track of all of your RSS feeds very easily.

Did you try Google Chrome on your Vista?

See how much faster it is on windows.

Sorry but I uninstalled it as it is a horrible browser for my XP. Thanks for the advice though.

I've never really liked Safari to be honest. Not my kind of browser. Chrome is more lightweight.

See how much faster it is on windows.

I just tested Safari 5 against Google Chrome in Vista. Honestly, there's not much difference in terms of loading times at all. I could barely notice a difference. Some pages Chrome loaded faster, some pages Safari loaded faster. But both were very fast, faster than Firefox.

And I don't know what Nic mean by "The looks of Safari are not the greatest on Windows", because Safari looks near identical to Chrome on Windows. Unless he's saying both Safari and Chrome look bad on Windows, I don't know what he's talking about, because Safari isn't dark or ugly on Windows or anything like that.

So, as I said, the loading times of Chrome and Safari appear to be near identical. But Safari comes out on top, because it has more features, and as of Safari 5, even better HTML5 support than Chrome does. Now it even has extensions, too!

I just used it

> It feels really cramped

> Gray is very ugly imo

> Everytime I backspaced in xat it'd go back a page

> I couldn't find a way to go full screen

Well, I don't think Chrome is better than Safari or that Safari is better than Chrome, they both have ups and downs.

I have been liking Safari lately so I'll probably continue to use it.

The extensions are pretty cool also.

Yeah, my Mac just updated me to this version without my knowledge. I still prefer Chrome.

Really? I had to manually do it. Not that many visual changes.

Yeah but I love the look of the Top Sites thing now! And the loading bar at the top!
