Why isn't Safari showing Quick Links on the top? Also there's no drop down menu for search.

IE 8 Beta(It's similar in IE 6, 7 & Opera):

After trying Safari for a while, I have given up on it... It is just not powerful enough for me... And performance wise, it is comparable to Opera only - not that much faster - When I tried over many times, sometimes Opera loaded faster and sometimes Safari loaded faster, but usually difference was like a couple of seconds only... And the fact that there is no ad-blocking currently in the Windows version is another minus... Also, in GMail, when I scroll down to the last entry in one page of inbox and then click to go for the next page, it doesnt take me to the top of the page but displays the bottom portion of the new page...

d00d only an insane Win user will even consider makin Safari as his/her primary browser

FF and Opera simply whup up Safari's backside in non Mac OSes
[cant comment on FF and Opera's performance in Mac tho. not used it]

Just trying it out with an open mind before rejecting it... I tried Firefox too but gave it up too because it did not suit me... Currently using Opera as main browser, and occasionaly IE for sites that dont render well in Opera...

Opera is the polar opposite of Safari, so people who use the former have a pretty slim chance of taking a liking to Safari on Windows anyway. :)

we seem to agree with each other on this point :)

Opera/FF and Safari are as like as Mrs. Kiran Bedi and Paris Hilton/Lindsay Lohan

We need 1 to ensure good performance, whereas the others are there to give us our hard0ns ;)

Anybody who idolizes the latter won't be able to appreciate the work of the former :)

Safari is not meant for geeks. Its a simple browser that does most of the stuff an average user needs and it does it better than the others. Techies will not notice the better cause our minds are trained to understand technology. Average people on the other hand gave a hard time figuring out what tabs are. Most of my friends are now using safari and are liking it.

Besides, one must appreciate it for what it is rather than put it down for what its not. I can never forgive firefox for exposing all my passwords.

Between any modern browsers there would hardly be any speed difference in rendering. An obvious exception is IE, which is a joke even on a 128kbps connection.
Look for speed in features - like snapback(safari), mouse gestures,fast forward,nicknames, M2, single key shortcuts,wand(Opera)
