Topic: Macintosh 3:08 pm EST, Jan  7, 2003

Apple has just announced a number of new products, including 12 and 17 inch powerbooks (one too small, and the other too large?), updates for iTunes, iPhoto, and iMovie which allow them to interoperate more easily, and a new web browser. The web browser, linked here, is the most important development IMHO, as the existing browsers all have various problems. Of course, I have yet to download it. I'll edit this comment when I've had a chance to try it out.

OK, here are my comments on Safari:

1. Looks REALLY nice and works well. My first overall impression is good. However, only time will tell if it is stable. (Its not...)

2. Pop up blocking did not interfere with MemeStreams! They got it right!

3. Spell Checker!!! Sweet!

4. No tabbed browsing... You kinda need that on a mac where you don't have a window bar.

5. Cannot turn offf anti-aliasing. Anti-Aliasing gives me headaches.

6. Does not draw empty tables. I am submitting this to them as a bug. This makes MemeStreams a little ugly...

7. ACK! Does not support Javascript text selection! I'm reporting this as well.
