yep it does.

[Implement]

is there any bugs in this beta?

[DaveTaylor]

Nothing major I noticed at the moment :/

Its super ugly in Vista's Areo (see images on 1st post).

Plus, i'm led to beleive there arent any plug ins for this.

[Kyle!]

I got e-mailed about this by Apple and I tried it... amazing. It's much speedier than Safari 3, cover flow is amazing and so is the "Top Sites" feature. Also, 100/100 on Acid3 test? Wow!

Forgot to say, the GUI on Mac is simply amazing...

I fail to understand how there could be any plugins for it, when well, it's just out today?

In Vista, on OS X it's hot.

[Barmi]

Agreed. This new Safari is hot.

[Agnostic Bear]

I installed it on OS X, stopped using it within 10 minutes due to it being backwards ******ed. No F5, no middle clicking on tabs, no searching history by window title instead of url.

It looks pretty though.

Here's it running in OS X:

I might begin using Safari over Firefox because of how poorly Shockwave runs in Firefox for me on OSX.

[Mikey]

i'll prob wait until the beta testing is over before installing a new version of Safari. I've got the current version [no beta] it's really good.

[Barmi]

Another pic of it running on a Mac... but with the cover-flow style History search.

[Monopoly]

I'm using it. It's the closest thing to Chrome on OS X so I'll be using it until Chrome's ready. :)

[Turbocom]

I've used it on my mac and I've noticed a few errors.

- Tabs require a lot of clicking before switching
- doesn't open hotmail links
- fails to load youtube videos (yet on firefox works like a charm)

Thats a few things I noticed, I sent feedback hopefully the fix it.

My tabs require a single click. Hotmail works fine for me. YouTube videos load even faster than they did before, for me. These are not inherent problems with the application itself...?

[Nli.]

Looks like chrome to me...

[Dentafrice]

Gah that looks like Chrome for some reason.. I really like the look of it.. but cannot get past the Chrome look ;P

There's a terminal mod you can do to move the tabs back to there old place. :)

[Dentafrice]

Yeah but still ;P I don't like it.

[Monopoly]

Yeah but still ;P I don't like it.

Fair enough.
I like it, apart from the weird corner click thing to move the tabs, I think it's fine.
&+ I abso love Chrome, so it's perfect for me until Google move there arse with Chrome for Mac. :p

[Jahova]

I hate the look of it, but yes, it does run well.
