I downloaded the Beta version of Safari for Windows, but after a little experimentation I think I'll be sticking to Firefox. I wasn't impressed by the way it imported my bookmarks and tucked them away in a folder I had to poke around to find, carefully converting all the RSS ones into broken regular links, while prominently displaying its own choice of generic bookmarks; I don't like the way it overrides my choice of window appearance in favour of a bland shaded grey thing with no edges; it won't work with my Acrobat and the new Acrobat reader wouldn't install properly and broke the way my Firefox handled PDFs; the fonts have the same horrible fuzziness they do in IE7; and my treasured custom stylesheet for hiding LJ-annoyances like the NavBar doesn't work. And fast? Not on my machine, it isn't.
In short: Do Not Want. Not even if it was stable, which it isn't, terribly, but it is a Beta, after all.
Top temperature today; 104F. And I realized that the necklace I was wearing was older than the summer students I was lecturing to. (Four female, two male. I'm not sure whether it was coincidence or design that the conference room ended up neatly divided down the long axis on gender lines.)
