theAppleBlog, Paul Thurrott: Safari is From Apple, Therefore I Hate It:

I Don’t Like Apple’s Products, They Shouldn’t Either
So let’s see what pearls of wisdom we get from Mr. Thurrott:

Of course, Apple being Apple, they are promoting Safari 4 as if it were the second coming. It’s “the world’s fastest, most efficient, and most innovative” browser, according to the humble folks in Cupertino.

Good point. Why can’t Apple’s marketing department just say their stuff sucks and be done with it? One question, though: Why is it when Microsoft lies (the CEO, no less) Thurrott doesn’t care? Odd that he has a lie detector on everyone at Apple, but seems to ignore Microsoft’s own CEO.

That is just a tidbit. Go to the article to read the rest of a take down of our favourite orifi.
