Title: OT--New Browser
Post by: Eagle on June 12, 2007, 06:48:39 AM
Apple has a new browser out for Mac's and Windows "Safari"  Go to Apple.com and check it out it sure is a lot faster than IE and Firefox.  It is free.

1. Safari is not a "new" browser.  It's been around since at least 2003.  What our friend Steve-O announced this morning is a Windows version.  And that it runs on the iPhone.

2. Unless you've done a bunch of benchmarks in one morning, you sound like you are parroting Steve's marketing hype -- "Faster than x and y..."  Steve would love for everyone to jump on his browser bandwagon -- it will help him sell more cell phones.

3.  Just what the world needs: "Don't use this proprietary software, use this other proprietary software instead -- it's better."  Given the number of gaping security holes that keep cropping up in proprietary browsers that can't be evaluated or fixed by third parties, I think I'll stick with open source, thank you very much.

I'll get off my soap box now, considering this is a bus conversion board.  But hey, you started it!
