Just tested this thingy (latest version):-

1. I think the font smoothing is better than ClearType, must set to Light though.

2. People says it loads webpages faster, but I think Firefox + AdBlock Plus is way faster especially in ad-laden sites.

3. Can't use proxy server, the option is grayed out. Will give some slack because this is beta.

4. Crashes more often, but this is beta so will give some slack too.

5. Takes more memory than Firefox (even with plugins), take as much as IE7. Apple needs to cut down memory consumption here. At least it is not bloated like that god-dammit iTunes.

6. I hate grey skin, should at least allow people to choose orange or pink. Hey if Vista can do it for FF, why not Safari?
