Safari for Windows!

[themoose]

Just released by Apple..

I doubt it'd live up to Opera, but I'll give it a try nonetheless!

Meh, that's all I get.

Installed and working on Windows XP. It looks worst than in OSX, curious

EDIT: Most websites I opened look like crap, they have to put a lot of work into this

It's good in terms of speed, but the actual browser looks like it was literally slapped together. They should have that metal bg like they do in the MAC version.

There's a version for Media Access Control now?

I'm on safari in my vista vm and it looks terrible, just terrible. It's clunky, choppy and all windows like.

Good thing it's still in beta.

For those of you who haven't ever used Safari on a macintosh, the following comparison may be new to you.

So enlighten us

It is a bit chunky and some bits need work but it is a good (ish) browser.

It has got a lot of attention but I really don't think the windows version compares very well to Safari on the Mac and Firefox.

Apple today announced (via a news release) that more than 1 million copies of Safari for Windows were downloaded in the first 48 hours since the free public beta was made available on Monday.

Safari on the Mac has the same problem I pointed out with vBull, along with WYSIWYG problems. It's basically the exact same as Safari on the Mac (besides the tabs), at least that's what I think. I used Safari before myself in my OS Overview Class, so I should know. :fangel:

So ???

Your class taught you what about it?

Your saying a lot with no substance,

So what are you saying?

They updated it to fix that security exploits found..and maybe some other stuff.

I've been using Safari 3 as my main browser for the mac and it shows the same vb links as firefox does...

That pretty much sums iyeru up .

Then we must have been using outdated versions (probably with a fresh OSX) on those mass laptops they gave us to work on.

Gotta say, I'd rather stick with my IE

 

[cmartin]

Yup, I'm sticking with IE, as well. Safari offers a few nice features, but IMO, the UI is horrible (it doesn't have any character), and the features offered with it are just "decent". It's really not that special (as I said before, IMO).
