Designed with the Mac in mind, Safari emphasizes browsing, not the browser. In new full-screen view, the browser frame is only a pixel wide, and you can hide almost the entire interface if you choose. So there’s nothing to distract you from an article, video, or photo album. Safari also features Reader, which lets you peruse articles sans annoying ads. Or save articles for later with Reading List. And since pages render fast in Safari, you won’t miss a minute of the web. In Safari 6, the search field and address field are also unified, there is a new "Do Not Track" option, and it also adds Baidu, the leading Chinese search engine, as a built-in search provider. With Mountain Lion, Safari adds Tab View, a new way to visually navigate your tabs, iCloud Tabs, a feature where iCloud syncs your tabs between devices, and built in Share Sheets.

New ML Clean Install on a 2010 MacBookPro. Safari refuses to act on MANY URLs. Cannot get it to download from sites like Google Earth and Mozilla Firefox. Other pages simply do not render

There seems to be a new default in Safari's Search function (cmd+F), which is just searching for words *starting* with the pattern you enter in the search field.

Click the magnifier icon and select ”Contains“ to get the old behaviour back.

This led to some frustration here, so beware.

After the last Lion update Safari started crashing a lot for me…

Works fine, but Web inspector is always in the separate window. You can't dock it to the bottom of the main Safari window itself and dock button does nothing.

Same here, at start up Safari opens the last page opened, independent of my preference settings. Lion came pre-installed on my brandnew MBP 8.2.

I agree with all these comments plus I have had numerous times when the screen freezes and I have had to manually power off. It has not worked well at all since I downloaded Lion to replace Snow Leopard.

Some font problems, which seem to affect styles (bold, italic), and seems to relate to having multiple versions of the same named font, e.g. postscript versions of system fonts, so that Helvetica, for instance, works fine except for italics or bold or both, which are replaced by a square with a capital 'A' in it on web pages. The issue is restricted to Safari, the same pages opened in Firefox work just fine.
