    "not ready for prime time or at least Win7"

    May 6, 2012  |   By kannuc

    Version: Apple Safari 5.1.5

    Pros

    didn't see any

    Cons

    when installing a new browser, expect it to save my favorite websites from the previous one; it didn't and had no way of doing so, didn't get pass that

    Summary

    got the impression that Apple was more interested in selling you stuff rather than being a browser

    "IT IS MADE FOR MAC - it is NOT FRIENDLY WITH WINDOWS"

    April 29, 2012  |   By salesalex

    Version: Apple Safari 5.1.5

    Pros

    just about ZERO.

    Cons

    -Installation file is about 30 MB , but the actual installation is FAAAR MORE BIGGER ,and takes about forewer to finish.
    -Interface is gray like ash and ugly as hell.
    -It installs some ''bonjour'' program which always run and seems like a malwaristic spyware and after the uninstallation of safari it is left behind and should be removed alone..
    -Uninstallation is almost as-long-as-installation .

    Summary

    DO NOT INSTALL THIS IF YOU USE WINDOWS OS.

    "Fast just the way I like it!"

    March 2, 2012  |   By Lovemymelba

    Version: Apple Safari 5.1.2

    Pros

    * Fast
    * Don't need all though extensions because it slows your browser

    Cons

    Sometimes it does crash on Windows that is. Runs better on a Mac in my opinion.

    Summary

    Great and simple browser that is my default browser! It is fast and that is what you need to make the internet more enjoyable!!!
