Safari for Windows Vista na XP


section: download, for your questions: KezNews forum, 12.6.2007

The world's best browser. Now on Windows, too - Safari 3 Public Beta. Among the most interesting things Apple CEO Steve Jobs outlined today was the company’s move to take Safari to Windows.




Why? For starters, Apple has just made the browser battle more interesting. But strategically Apple’s Safari 3 effort (see Techmeme) is a Trojan horse (gallery at right) that could encourage more Mac switching.

With Apple comes features like Bonjour, a software application that gives you a view of your network on the fly. It’s way easy.



These bundles that come along with Safari give folks a glimpse into Apple’s software (see Jason O’Grady on Leopard specs). Much like iTunes, Safari could become a critical Windows app that usurps some of Microsoft’s Windows capabilities. Safari tilts you toward Apple subliminally.

Full disclosure: I used to be an avid Safari user, but haven’t seen the browser for a few months as I’m primarily a PC person for now–at least until I get a MacBook. I had a MacBook until November.



Now Safari on the Mac had its issues–some sites didn’t work and it seemed crashy at time. Apple gives a nod to that fact and allows you to submit sites that don’t work to Apple. Presumably these things will get fixed.

Other nice features include:

* The ability to open a tab in a new window.
* An easy view of all your plug-ins, including ones you probably didn’t know about.
* And the ability for private browsing.

Biggest gripe: Safari gives you no search box choices beyond Google and Yahoo.

Overall, it was nice to see Safari back on my desktop. Welcome back.

By sjc1963 on 12.06.2007 - 12:06

By wollongong on 12.06.2007 - 15:06

Poor

By Speedy_B on 12.06.2007 - 17:06
it took 3 minutes just to load the start page. firefox is way better-and yes i know it's a beta-but i really don't think it was ready to be released as beta-maybe alpha 0.5

Safari is Good

By VistaMan on 12.06.2007 - 17:06
to my friend wollongong:
the safari browser does not "close down" when you bookmark a website. as the matter of facts, i'm currently using the safari's bookmark to browsing my favorite site keznews.com and i had bookmark many sites without any problem.

Safari

"it took 3 minutes just to load the start page"

speed_b:
all browsers (netscape, ie6, ie7, firefox, opera and the beta safari browser) do not take 3 minutes to render a startpage/a webpage.

unless 1 or more of the following conditions are true:
1- your pc has an intel pentium 1 cpu with a 24k dialup modem.
2- your intel dual/quad cores pc only has 256k ram with microsoft vista ultra
3- your pc mother board has a very loundsy on board graphics chipset.
4- you are internet surfing on the porm sex sites that load up your pc with tons of spywares,trojans, worms, viruses and malware scripts.
5-your country government has ton of firewalls and censorsing devices that check/track & censure the internet contents and the surfing habits of you and your fellow citizens.

Dermo!

it's s.h.i.t don't work on vista - vista reject with error.

apple - kill itself about a wall with codewrapper.

MAC OS X for generic Intel PC

By Xunil on 12.06.2007 - 19:06
note: microsoft java or and plug-ins for ie7 donot work with safari. u need to download sun java, adobe flash/acrobat plug-ins & other website required plug-ins for the safary browser from the links on the apple safari download page.

i got the safari, itunes and quicktimes working perfectly on my windows vista ultra pc. now, i want to run the mac os x itself on my pc.

has anyone ever got the mac os-x to work on his/her pc?
does anyone know how to get the apple os-x working on a generic intel home built configuration computer?

here here you are right speedy_b. this guy/little girl is full of it. he/it really took offense to your statement. perhaps you could offer him a free keycode so he can upgrade from windows xp home to vista basic.

The world's best browser... not

By samic on 13.06.2007 - 00:06
no offense but neither speed nor features of safari can complete with ie/firefox. hell.. if i really want to use something else, i rather use opera.

Are you people Nuts?

By George on 13.06.2007 - 07:06
why the hell would you want to use some useless apple crap. you have to load all the extras into it. save the hassle and use firefox. if you want to surf the internet, using this would be the dumbest thing to use. unbelievable!!!! give your head a shake people.

problem

By pHysiX on 13.06.2007 - 11:06

i live in an internet restricted place. i have a cheap low end hp compaq presario v3000t notebook ($3,900 hkd). my cheap vista hp notebook & all my browsers (safari, firefox, and ie) take less than 15 seconds to load most of the common websites’ start pages.
you live in a free usa with no internet restriction. you have an expensive high end hp pavilion dv9000 notebook ($9,400 - $15,500 hkd). but your expensive vista hp notebook & your safari browser take 3 minutes to load the websites’ start pages. what's wrong? see below if you still don’t know what's wrong with you and your equipments:
-- you’re loud mouth big ego bully dumbass male chauvinistic jerks who have tiny-brains and “tiny-ducks” to cognize your own incompetents. wipe out your “ducks” to remove your oem pre-installed junks. behave like a real man/boy. install linux and stop blaming others.

cheer :)

safari better than ie

By nigameash on 13.06.2007 - 19:06
i feel safari is way better than ie but, i still prefer firefox as
1) safari is still in a beta stage n often crashes with particular sites
2)during a crash, firefox can retrieve all data/tabs while safari cannot

though i plan to buy a macbook pro, so i ll b seeing a lotta safari:)

...frozen safari

By trudogg on 14.06.2007 - 01:06
...it froze on the second usage after deleting the included bookmarks. maybe it works better on snapple hardware...

The fastest browser .......no

By jrearys on 14.06.2007 - 05:06
better than ie yes! better than firefox ....no in other word agreed with nigameash.

weird

By pHysiX on 14.06.2007 - 10:06
hmmm...seems to only work in vista for me. no fonts or anything in xp

only one maths relation can explain this:
safari is greater than internet explorer but less than mozilla firefox ftw!!!

Safari

By Gecko on 15.06.2007 - 14:06

By Speedy_B on 18.06.2007 - 11:06
