I wouldn't uninstall FF. In fact, I run several different browsers on both the Macs and Windows machines (I need them to test layouts, templates, etc on all websites), but I find myself using Safari most of the times now. Only when I need to access applications designed exclusively for IE (for example: Outlook Web Access), is when I use IE. I even have IE installed in the Mac together with Firefox and Opera.

If you haven't used Safari yet, your in for a bit of adjustment to what you are used to see on the overall look and feel. But it runs very smooth on Windows, and makes it a good alternative to FF; on my PC, it even runs faster than FF.

I also like how the fonts and the overall layouts of these sites' look in Safari. They are more accurate to their original designs .

Wow, off topic. But yeah, I hate Windows Vista. Windows XP to me is fine. My Windows XP is more responsive than my mom's new Windows Vista program. At any rate, time to call the friggin Dell support hotline. I know the damn number by heart already...
Christian, since you hate Dell so much (and in part due to running Vista I guess), check this article from the NY Times

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/16/te...1&oref=slogin#

Bottom line, right now Michael Dell would not mind offering Dells running Mac OS X if Apple allows for this to happen... quite a contrast to what he said about Apple Inc., back in 1997

Cougar, Lynx and Lion are still unused.
