Discussing the Coming War With Iraq

I have an interesting thread going on the Clan mAc forums over the issues surrounding the reasons for war with Iraq. You might wanna check it out and even add your own input.

My Thoughts Exactly

I discovered a nice little blurb titled "Why the Mozilla Broswer Sucks" over at this guys blog. Fascinating read if you ask me!

Safari v54 Overview

Well looky here, build 54, exactly as I said. The date on this build is January 23rd, comfortably within my stated time table for new builds. This build is also STABLE. The release notes on this one are lot more extensive than the last one. Probably the most noticeable changes are the Apple tabs no longer being off center and the content on VersionTracker no longer overlapping. The HyperCells are still acting up, damn! I guess Dave still needs to work on his CSS support. So far I have discovered no new features, nor have any been documented. These builds seem to be concentrated on bug fixes and standards support, as they should be. I can only guess at the staggering amount of feedback Apple has assuredly gotten with this thing. As before, I'll copy the release notes later in the post. And incase anyone has forgotten: I will not distribute this copy to anyone who asks so don't even bother. Ta ta.

Build 54 Release Notes:

Known Issues: ( Do not submit another bug)

Computer hangs downloading very large files
