Does Safari 4 still store screenshots from your visited webpages?

I once read a story of a guy who have like 36MB on his hard drive taken up by those images which according to him can't be deleted

that's keeping me from updating

What is so concerning about 36MB of space... I thought 36MB was not very much nowadays where hard drive capacities are in the hundreds of GBs.

How small, exactly, is your hard drive that 36 MB is keeping you from upgrading? (Not that you shouldn't be able to delete them more easily, but...)

Ahh. I half expected this update to enable optional tabs-back-on-top. I loved them! Can't we make everyone happy?
