Hey Guys!!

Well i've had my iMac for a week now and my biggest issue is that i waited so long to get it (previously i had a PC)!

iPhoto is better than Picasa. iMovie is awesome and iWeb takes my breath away, Handbrake is the surprise package for me. Fantastic!!

Now i've bigged it up i have a couple of problems, but i'll only bore you with one. Safari. Chrome for me was the best thing about my PC. Firefox is ok but i find it slow and i'm not a big fan of the bookmark set up. Safari is my browser of choice, especially as it synchronizes with my iPhone. Now Safari on my PC had 'Top Sites' as it's home page - i cannot find this anywhere on the Mac version. Also when i search via the google search box i have no option to search from the UK.

Any thoughts??

Download safari 4, it will do that.

On way to do it now.

Feel a bit stoopid, thought by going to 'update software' it might do this automatically.

Cheers...

i think that the new look of Safari 4 makes it look much more at home on Windows than the Mac version :eek:.

I never knew there even was a PC version of Safari. Not like I use it anyway but still.

Firefox for me. :)
