If there's one thing the Windows world has been clamoring for, it's another web browser. Right. Apple has heard the cries and released Safari for Windows. I've been using Safari since the day of its public release, and I've found a number of interesting facts and features in the browser. [Author’s Note: I wrote this a few weeks ago and, for various reasons, it didn’t run. I’ve been re-reading it, and decided that it still works to describe what I think about Safari. We’re (with any luck at all) a bit closer to Apples release of the new and improved Mac OS, so we may not have to wait quite so long to see what the longer-term game is, but the issues brought up here are still important. We’re very interested in what you think about the browser wars. Let me know if my impressions match yours, of if you think I’ve missed something critical in my look at Safari.]If there’s one thing the Windows world has been clamoring for, it’s another web browser. Right. Apple has heard the cries and released Safari for Windows. I’ve been using Safari since the day of its public release, and I’ve found a number of interesting facts and features in the browser. I’m running the software on top of Vista Business, and the parallels between the two are most fascinating. The first and most important parallel is in the overall impression I’ve gotten from the experience. My take: Safari for Windows (like Vista) is not quite fully baked. Everything else, both good and bad, flows out of that essential understanding. Technology Industry
