    Avoid installing Safari for Windows. There are reports of security vulnerabilities in Safari for Windows. At least wait till Apple releases a patch or something.

    Cool, thanks for the heads up Everton.

    I was wondering what our site looks like on Safari!

    Have an awesome day!

    Tried it on Vista. Works ok, not really faster than Firefox, but for some reason crashed twice. Security is still an issue as Vijeesh indicated.

    Yeah, all the designers in the office were giddy about this news yesterday. Damn mac users think they own the internet! ;)

    I've tried it on XP, but I has some bugs: sometimes it exits for no reason apparently...

    it will take time to compete with Internet Explore and FireFox unless they partnership with some gaint just like FireFox did.

    I'm baffled as to why Apple would even try to compete in the browser field, but one of my astute pals thinks this is to attract content & app developers for the iPhone's browser.

    As for the whole speed thing, why the emphasis on load speed when the real bottleneck is rarely the browser, the OS, or the hardware - I've found that the broadband connection pipes and the content senders are much more likely to be the culprits if your browsing is sluggish.

    I love safari! i had firefox and was having problems with pdfs and emails not sending. That is now all in the past. the only downfall I have found is there is no password manager. sxipper was really nice to have, but i guess i am just being lazy.
