Hmm.... Windows users get new hotness. Mac users get brushed metal?
I mean, no offense brushed, but it is a little 2002

Ya, I kind of thought the same thing too. The I realized that it was for us Mac users who have to use PCs at work. The I realized that it said XP and Vista and I still use 2000 at work. The I discovered it requires Admin rights to install (why? even FireFox doesn't require that!) and that I couldn't even if I wanted to. Then I was bummed...

Trying it on Vista and it runs kinda slow. Not as fast as Firefox. The beta seems to crash when I go to certain pages including some threads on this forum. It even crashes when I try to log in, which is why I'm writing this in Firefox.

It runs great on my macbook pro, but it runs quite poorly in windows. It seems to render far more slowly than firefox as well. The interface is so out of place in Windows, but beautiful nonetheless.
Auto scroll would be really nice... how lucky for windows users to get the new interface and the ability to maximize the browser window.
Good work Apple either way. I look forward to the next, STABLE release of this beta.

I personally don't like it. The brushed metal looks horrible on Windows Vista as it really clashes with Aero Glass.
Then again, I don't use Safari on my Mac, so I see no reason to use it on Windows either
