Well, I've switched to the new Firefox 1.5 which imported all of my bookmarks, cookies and history from Safari and it is blazingly fast in comparison to Safari even when opening exactly the same set of 20 or more tabbed web pages. Switching pages, going back and forward between links, loading new pages - all things that caused distinct pauses and the spinning beachball when more than a few pages were open in Safari all now happen instantly. Loading MacSurfer.com is soo much less painful. Looks like Apple is going to have to do a lot of work to lure me back to Safari. -Mart
