khtml sucks. why people persist is beyond me.
when they get tabbed browsing on the go and when their privacy and security settings are as versatile and when it's fast enough to compare with gecko browsers, then i might relent on khtml.
still, haven't tried safari myself and from what i hear from you guys, it's better than konqueror web browser, so this means that apple must be making it better? so long as they don't rest on their laurels it should be more or less decent some time soon.

Did you use Konq. 3.1? It has all of that. Plus, installing Mosfet's Replacement Image Loading thingie, it'll be a god-send to you if you're on dialup (progressive image loads).

my girlfriend uses konqueror ocassionally, but i prefer phoenix and mozilla to be honest. i will probably try out konqueror 3.1 sometime soon - i know my girlfriend is still using konqueror 3.0 because she still boots into red hat 8 even though i now have slack 9 too.
i wonder when we will see a linux version of safari since apple are such generous chappies and have released all their source code et cetera.

great to hear they are coming along so fast with it, as a company i do like apple et cetera, but it's a shame that use of real Free software suffers in this way.
actually the jury's still out on this in my opinion, also ecsyle, don't feel i am picking on you or anything just because i quoted you.

not to worry.
i think i did speak too quickly though. i cant access my bank online with safari. that really sucks. and safari was rendering my site weird. probably a css thing. so i will keep camino as my default.
wow. i just checked my site in explorer, and it really fucked it up. lame. mozilla was is the only browser to render it the way i want. camino second. yay gecko. not so yay khtml yet.

heh. i doubt they will release safari for any other platform. just like they will not release iLife, or keynote. but those last suites are not open.. so maybe they will? only time will tell. and i do have faith in apple.
