new Safari 42x faster than IE 7

As my default browser, I’m just about to switch from Opera to the beta version of Safari 4 on Mac.

It’s fast. (smaller is faster)

The main thing this graph shows is that Internet Explorer is for idiots. It’s horribly slow.

Opera is good. But has some annoying features that cannot be modified.

In future, I will keep Firefox and Safari open at the same time, switching back and forth. Safari now offers full screen zoom like Firefox. That’s the main feature I need, aside from speed.

Google Chrome is not yet available for Mac.
