    I 've tried Safari web browser and so far it was fine. I just want to know how to disable clearType(like windows' cleartype), as I like safari can show web pages as other browsers.
    I found in Edit->Preference->Appearance, but nothing there, just Font Smoothing(Light,Medium &Strong) but none to disable clearType.
    And do you feel safari loads pages faster than FF/Opera?

    If i'm not wrong, Safari for Windows do not have Cleartype built in. They use anti aliasing for their fonts.

    Oh yes, you're true. I meant how to disable font anti-aliasing. it can be somewhat disturbing for me.
