Hi Chris, The only downside to using Safari is that it seems that you cannot install Firefox plugins due to the open source nature of FF. However, perhaps this has changed in the past year. ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Blouch To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 8:22 PM Subject: Re: Firefox and Flash
Firefox 3.5 came out last week but I was disappointed to find accessibility has not improved. That is, other than the window title and menus (stuff generated by the OS) it was entirely inaccessible. I was hoping there would at least be the first glimmers of VO support. That said, Safari still trounces FF (and all other popular browsers) in Javascript performance.
