Apple's first Windows beta release of Safari had some nasty bugs, most importantly one where bold text wouldn't render on non-English versions of Windows. Since the 3.0.2 release has 'fixes for text display, non-English systems', this bug might by fixed. In addition, Security Update 2007-006 for Mac OS 10.3.9 and Mac OS 10.4.9 and later has been released. The update addresses two vulnerabilities in WebKit, one of which could lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution.

If you really dislike Safari's / OSX's font rendering, selecting "Light font smoothing style" (can't remember where to do it under WIndows---probably in Preferences) helps a bit.
A typical complaint from Windows users is that OSX-style font rendering is "too dark"; "Light" rendering fixes that. It's still not Cleartype, but it's a bit easier on the Windows-trained eyes.
