| | | Safari issues
Sometimes on websites like Yahoo I have problems with Safari in that text overlaps. It does not do this pon a PC Explorer. Any suggestions?

| | Are you running the Safari 3.0 beta on your Mac? Almost all of the problems on sites like Yahoo are fixed in the latest beta version.
You might also consider trying Camino. It's by the Mozilla Corp (the company that makes Firefox), but it's designed specifically for Mac. It's a great browser that's every bit as fast as Safari. Camino. Mozilla Power, Mac Style

| | | Scott,
I use Firefox as an alternate to Safari when I need to. I keep it in the Dock.

| | | I have to tell you that I'm not terribly impressed with Safari. Almost every web application I've ever worked with has some issue with Safari when it comes to plugins. |

It runs much faster because it's a direct port of the Mozilla web rendering engine (what Firefox uses) for OS X. The only difference is that you won't be able to run Firefox extensions, but for the speed difference I prefer Camino.

Theology and dogmatics, too, exist for the Lord's sake." — Herman Bavinck, Reformed Dogmatics, vol. 1, p. 46
