OK, you are navigating PTT and you open a bunch of threads as tabs, you are done reading the first and your fingers go to hit the "Command + W" to close the tab and read the next. But you hit "Command + Q" and quit the whole application. ARG!

A very easy fix:
Open "System Preferences..."
Choose "Keyboard & Mouse"
Click the "Keyboard Sortcuts" tab
Go to the bottom of the window and click on "All Applications"
Click the plus button "+"
From the dialog drop down click the double arrows and find and choose Safari

In the "Menu Title:" field type exactly (without quotes) the "Menu" title, in this case "Quit Safari"

Type the shortcut you want to use in the "Keyboard Shortcut:" field, in my case I used the "Option + Q" keys.

Quit System Preferences, fire up Safari, test and feel smug.

With FireFox, if you accidently hit Apple + Q it asks if you really want to close all the tabs down or cancel...

^ However, firefox sux on macs. Safari is at least twice as fast on mine.

Yeah, Safari is the best browser there is. Its faster, and even on firefox I will get popups, but for safari they are never exposed, safari has better security and is much faster, and like most other Apple applications, it corresponds with applications like address book and mail, so my book marks are set to go, and not to mention much easier to access than for firefox. I have customized my safari toolbar also and doing that helped me a lot.

And as a huge bonus, the RSS feed is GREAT and I am inlove, it makes almost everything to read easier.

Not to mention very stylish

After going onto a windows machine and using any browser (including firefox and IE) there is no comparison

Opera FTW.

Changing the text size on FF is much easier... It's just Apple - to make it smaller and Apple + to make it bigger... Rather than cluttering up your toolbar.... Plus tabs are bigger and have the website picture on tabs at all times... But with Safari.. You dont. And you can customize FF's toolbar just as easy as you can with Safari...

I switched to FF before Safari had tabs which were easy to use.... And looking back on it... I wouldnt use Safari again unless there were a few tweaks to it

I used FF because I could see html coding that resembles how windows see it (on myspace) but the slowness really bites.. So I use safary and its just so much better, for me atleast.

^^ dude, that works for safari too. The only thing I really like about firefox is the search bar. Besides that, Safari all the way. On PC's, it is my favorite just because IE sucks.

Ive never had that problem. Ive been playing jazz guitar/bass guitar for many years, and my left hand is freakinshly long, strong, and articulate. I can see how that would be easy to accidentally miss the W key, though. Safari = awesome.
