Update Needed For Safari
I've been having some problems with Firefox lately. It was crashing unexpectedly, something it hasn't done for months. I assumed that maybe all this summer heat had damaged my over-clocked computer. After all, before I purchased an air conditioner, it was so hot that I could barely fall asleep. I figured the heat was causing thermal failures -- its not like I have temperature sensors installed on this old machine. G3 processors don't really put out much heat, so Apple didn't spend too much time designing a cooling system for them (like they do now with G4 and G5s, which are borderline space heaters).
So anyway, I started using Apple's web browser, Safari. I liked it at first, but found its compatibility was limited and it was a memory hog. There were some updates that addressed most of my issues, but now, while I'm using it, I find that its compatibility is still poor. It doesn't even render parts of the blogger dashboard properly, and Google has been saying its trying to design web sites that will be Safari compatible.
In short, Safari needs an update. Soon.
