I downloaded it and played around for a little bit this evening. Seems fairly fast and the appearance is quite nice. I doubt I will switch from Firefox since I use too many of its features and extentions but it is an interesting alternative.
Has anyone else tried out Safari?

It's too bad that Apple worded Software Update and left Safari checked by default. It's not really malware so it should be a non-issue.
I have to agree about Firefox and extensions. And Firefox 3 looks impressive. However, Safari is hands down the best browser on the market rendering wise. It's also, if I'm not mistaken, the fastest. It's got some nice features but most have been brought to Firefox and the lack of extensions hurt it.
