I'm writing this post using the newly released Safari 3.1 browser for Windows. I've always had the beta installed on my computer for testing page rendering, but up until now I haven't tried to use it as a primary browser, preferring Firefox because of the awesome extension engine.

Well... I think I may be facing a conundrum, as Safari is simply amazing. It's fast, clean, and everything just looks better! Firefox is great and all, but the fonts and anti-aliasing in Safari are awesome, leagues ahead of Windows' standard fonts.

I've always promised myself that I'd upgrade my HP laptop to a MacBook Pro when the time was right. But now, that time is looking to be very soon. Very, very soon.

UPDATE

Actually, the font smoothing has started to annoy me. It's inconsistent, and often it makes text hard to read.
