You misunderstand. I'm pushing out QT patches, not Safari. My comment was about the self-installing updater. And no, I would go Firefox before Safari, but I honestly don't see the point for supporting 2 browsers in a business environment without a business need. I haven't had anyone complain about not having a 2nd browser. Most have never heard of Firefox, but I put it on all of our PC giveaways anyway. > I can't see how loading your computer users up with a bunch of brand-x > software is going to make them better off.

I put it on all of our laptops when AR 8.0 was constantly nagging us for updates and locking up the computer when you tried to shut down. > The only better alternative is to upgrade them to Macs so they could use Apple's Preview and QuickLook > (if they get Leopard).
