Well, I'm excited.

Apple has released a beta for Safari 4, and it looks pretty awesome. I’m really psyched about the new web inspector features and the (hallelujah!) JavaScript debugger. I’ll install it on my non-work machine soon and report back with more details.

Also, I really really want a new MacBook Pro, since my PowerBook G4 is really struggling with the only tasks I use it for: watching video and using PhotoShop. Sigh.

Update 2009-02-24 16:25—The Safari 4 beta is rocking my world. Especially the revamped web inspector. I really really wanted the Firebug-style element highlighting when you hover over an element in the markup in the inspector, and I got it. That and the JS debugger are going to change my life.

Also, recent benchmarks show that Safari 4 is, for the moment, at least, 42 (yes. 42.) times faster than IE7 and 3.5 times faster than Firefox 3 on Windows. Let the JavaScript engine wars commence! (via)
