SAFARI SO GOOD

Since I started running Panther (Mac OS 10.3), I've been using Safari and Mail instead of Netscape and Eudora. Gotta say Safari and Mail win hands down. It took me a while to figure out how to get Safari to do tabbed browsing, and to get it to import Netscape bookmarks properly you need to use a wily hack to enable Debug Mode. But once done, they are far more robust and elegant. Oh, and unlike Eudora, free.

Now if only Mac would release a word processor so I could dump evil Microsoft's Office X.

Alex, there are alternatives to MS Word, look here: http://wrywriter.com/wordpress/index.php?p=239

Apple does AppleWorks which is okay, and they've also brought out new software, iWork, which looks interesting.

Cheers,

Are you using Tiger (10.4) or Panther (10.3)? Your post has me confused... Thanks, GB
