In the lab. They stated that they'll have a tech preview of this functionality in a week or two.

98% on Webkit is now, however. I'm running it on my computer and you can too. So... it'll be owned if it actually happens.

Just like with IE8 beta 1, passing an Acid test means nothing if it crashes half the time.

5 - I run Safari 3.1
On my Powerbook and it scored 75/100. Mind you I do have a number of personal settings that likely screwed up the score as it was supposed to be set to factory default. Out of interest I ran 52/100 on version 2.0.0.12.

I have been a fan of Safari ever since I 'converted' to mac 6 years ago. Best browser I've ever used. Although I'm not a big fan of it on a PC (real buggy).

Just my 2 cents.
