HI; In my case, my brand new computer came with a bunch of top sites on it already, presumably sights that advertised with Apple such as CNN, New York Times, and the like. What a mess that was. I'm definitely hanging onto this info. Thanks Esther. On Feb 3, 2010, at 11:35 AM, Esther wrote:

Another handy bit is that any bookmarks you store in the bookmarks bar can be fired up just by hitting command-# where the number is the order which the bookmark is in the bar list. So my most commonly used sites are in the bookmark bar slots 1-5. To get to the first item at any time in Safari
