Review: Safari web-browser for Windows - Tech Digest
As part of WWDC last night, Steve Jobs unveiled possibly the most important piece of news of the night to consumers - Safari, Apple's very own web-browser, was to become available on Windows. Quite why any self-respecting Windows user would want to taint their hard drive with El Jobso's machinery, and quite why Apple are interested in placing their software on Windows in the first place, no one knows. But then, the same thing was said when they announced iTunes would be available on Windows, and there's no way in a-black-turtleneck-and-jeans heaven the iPod would have seen anywhere near the amount of success had this not been implemented. So, we know Safari already owns 5% of the market share in web browsers - but will this new availability of the browser for Windows-users increase the popularity?
