Yup,I use it everyday on my Mac,it works great. Big Grin My wife has a laptop with Vista and she is running internet explorer and it always screws up. Mad

Smile That's Why I never Bothered with it,I thought it was Just for Mac,But i saw today,They had a Download Version for Xp and Vista. Tell Your wife Skip!
Here is the download address
www.apple.com/safari/download/

Thank Jared....

Confused they "advertise", they are twice as fast sin! I know ,i know could be BS,but i'm doing a test of firefox version 3.0 and safari,
I think Safari is loading the pages faster. That was my main gripe with firefox,slowness,it's pluses def outweigh it's minuses for sure,def less buggy then i/e, it's just nice to have some more options,ya know? Wink

Without starting a browser war here, I primarily use Opera 9.5 with Firefox 3 as a backup. I might give this Safari a try now that I know they have a Windows version.

jaredscottfla - 2008-07-10 19:17

SmileNo war worries FD, i'm not partial to any in paticular,i've used opera too,one critiscm with them,i noticed a few secure sights,meaning 128 encrypt like my bank for example,for online bking opera does not work.... Mad Roll Eyes
all have pluses and minuses,i/e still for me is the best for page loading and speed,firefox,and safari seem to work better for video downloads like movies. To ea his own.. i think the more the merrier in this case! Big Grin

I have a Mac, and have used Firefox for quite some time. It's not twice as fast as Safari, -Safari works just fine too.

Speaking of Apple, tomorrow is the big 3G iphone release at the Apple Store. I've been honing my computer selling skills, now I have to sell phones! It will be a madhouse at work tomorrow! Frown

Hey Jared. I started working at Apple to supplement my income. But, the job is very flexible, I can work as much as I want and concentrate more on my Masters classes, decided to take the summer off from teaching. I've taught ever term for the last 2+ years... need a break...
