The only complaint I have about the Mac is the Safari browser. Its functionality is pretty basic. Its not what I expect with Apple software. As soon as you get your Mac, download Camino, the Mac port of Firefox.

Just curious... what do you find lacking in Safari?

Ad-blocking plugins are not as well developed as they are for Firefox. In addition, there are tab-browsing plugins for Firefox that put Safari to shame.

“Just curious... what do you find lacking in Safari?”

Its not that Safari renders pages badly....its that if Safari can’t “recognize” some advanced features, it simply ignores them.

For instance, there’s a college football board I go to a lot, and Safari displays none of the toolbars or formatting options that Firefox/Camino and IE do.

MacWorld had a really good article on this issue a few months back, with some examples of several webpages between Safari, Firefox, and Opera, and Safari simply doesn’t pick up a lot of features that the other two do.
