> ### Introducing SafariSpeed 2.1 - Now Compatible with Safari 3 Beta?
>
> SafariSpeed just got a whole lot better. SafariSpeed 2 introduces an
> array of useful new features. In addition to removing Safari's page
> loading delay and disabling favorite icons, SafariSpeed 2 can
> disable Safari's cache for an even greater performance boost, turn
> on and off Safari's debug menu and PDF support, and easily switch
> Safari's interface between brushed metal and Aqua. To simplify and
> enhance your experience, SafariSpeed 2 combines the features of all
> of our previous applications into one in addition to adding new
> options.
>
> SafariSpeed 2.1 is a free upgrade for licensed users of SafariSpeed
> 2. It adds behind-the-scenes changes for an even greater performance
> boost, an improved registration interface, and support for multiple
> localizations (which will be added in a future minor update). All
> current users are strongly recommended to upgrade to version 2.1.
>
> ### Performance
>
> When Apple initially created Safari, they included a one-second page
> loading delay. Because of this delay, Safari would always wait one
> second before beginning to display a page. While this delay does not
> exist in Safari 1.3 and higher, SafariSpeed 2 can be used to remove
> this delay in older versions, allowing web pages to be displayed
> sooner, especially for users with high-speed connections.
>
> By default, every time you visit a web site, Safari downloads and
> saves to your hard drive a small image representing the site. These
> images are then displayed in the address bar next to the site's
> address and in the Bookmark Manager. Each time you start Safari, the
> browser loads all of these small images that it has collected up.
> This drains your system's memory, and makes Safari more sluggish. By
> allowing you to easily prevent Safari from storing these "favorite
> icons," SafariSpeed 2 increases Safari's performance.
>
> Most browsers include a feature called a cache. Whenever you visit a
> web page, that page and all the images on it are downloaded into the
> cache and saved on your computer. In theory, this allows your
> browser to call up the page more quickly in the future, since it
> only needs to access your hard drive rather than a remote web server
> to do so. Some believe that the cache in Safari is not well
> optimized, and, particularly for users with broadband connections,
> can actually slow down the browser. In addition, the cache sucks up
> hard disk space. SafariSpeed 2 allows you to disable Safari's cache,
> increasing performance for some users and reclaiming lost disk
> space.
>
> ### Features
>
> Have you ever been frustrated by a web site that claimed it was
> "Windows-only" and refused to work on your Mac? Have you ever wanted
> to import bookmarks from Internet Explorer, Netscape, or Mozilla
> into Safari? There is a secret menu buried within Safari that will
> allow you to access many so-called "Windows-only" web sites,* import
> bookmarks from other browsers, and complete many other useful tasks.
> This menu, however, was not enabled by Apple in the publicly-
> released versions of Safari. Using SafariSpeed 2, you can enable
> this hidden Debug menu and gain access to these features.
>
> SafariSpeed 2 also allows you to switch off Safari's built-in PDF
> support (added in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger) and read PDF files from
> within the more full-featured Preview application rather than from
> within Safari itself. This feature of SafariSpeed 2 is compatible
> only with Safari 2.0.
>
> ### Interface
>
> If you feel like you are trapped inside a high-end kitchen showroom
> every time you open Safari, you'll be glad to know that it is
> finally possible to replace Safari 2.0's dark brushed metal
> interface with a bright and airy Aqua one. SafariSpeed 2 allows you
> to switch between the two interface styles quickly and easily. This
> feature of SafariSpeed 2 replaces our previous Safari Aquafier
> application, which was not compatible with Safari 2.0. The version
> of this feature included with SafariSpeed 2 is compatible only with
> Safari 2.0.
>
> ### Simplicity
>
> SafariSpeed 2 is not only a powerful utility - it is also a simple
> one. All modifications can be made with just a few easy clicks of
> the mouse. Once you have made a modification using SafariSpeed 2,
> you won't ever have to open SafariSpeed again unless you wish to
> undo the modification or you upgrade to a new version of Safari or
> SafariSpeed. With SafariSpeed 2, you can literally "set it and
> forget it."
>
> ### System Requirements
>
> We recommend using SafariSpeed with Mac OS X 10.4 and Safari 2.0 or
> higher. The page loading delay, favorite icon, and cache disabling
> features are additionally compatible with Safari 1.3. Using the
> brushed metal/Aqua interface features with any version of Safari
> other than 2.0 is likely to cause unpredictable and undesirable
> results.
>
> ### Pricing
>
> SafariSpeed 2 is shareware, and you may use it 11 times before you
> will need to register. The registration fee for SafariSpeed is $8
> and can be securely paid via our online store. Your license allows
> you to use SafariSpeed 2 on up to five personally-owned computers
> and entitles you to free upgrades to all future releases of
> SafariSpeed 2. When you register, you'll also get priority support.
>
> * The Debug menu enabled by SafariSpeed 2 allows you to change your
> browser's user agent. For websites that rely on user agent detection
> to determine the user's operating system, the use of this feature
> often allows access to "Windows-only" websites.
>
> ? All features except the brushed metal/aqua interface feature are
> compatible with Safari 3 Public Beta at this time. SafariSpeed is
> not yet compatible with the final release of Safari 3.
