    Aurora is fast but fuck me what a memory hog.

    Try Chrome if you haven't tried it before.

    Don't touch Safari with a shitty stick. In no time at all you'll end up backed with their retarded bloatware.

    I recommend downgrading to FF2 or FF3, they work wonderfully and very light weight

    avoid anything made by Apple, usual bloated POS software,

    Fine until you want screenshots or to print anything.

    I can screen dump from it and it has a print option.

    What's the problem?

    I use Chrome because of FF's memory hog, but it's crap in comparison.

    I have plenty of RAM in all my PC's, but you have to close Aurora periodically or it just grows and grows.

    And that's where you'll stay until you can master Windows 7.
