Dirty secret: I love Safari on Windows
It hasn't replaced Flock for me, but it's making inroads.
After bashing Safari for Windows when it first came out, I have to confess something: lately I've begun to rely on Apple's browser. Not for everything, mind you. But the more I use it, the more I like it.
The biggest reason: It's fast. It's faster to start up than Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Flock. And it's fast to load pages. Blindingly fast. Fast enough to make the Web feel more inviting.
I also like how it displays text. Sure it's using a non-standard font smoothing technology, but I think it looks great.
I don't like that my favorite plug-ins, Roboform and PicLens, don't work in Windows Safari. And I really don't like that there are security exploits emerging for Safari and that there's no open-source community to address them.
But when I need a Web page loaded up fast, Safari is often the browser I turn to.
