Apple.com made a big anouncement a couple of days ago. They launched Safari 3 Public Beta (MAC OS`s default browser) for Windows. They`r advertisment on the website is “The world`s best browser.Now on Windows, too”.
On it`s download section, apple.com has a special column called ” Why you`ll love Safari”. There you can find the following statements :
* BLAZING PERFORMANCE - Safari is the fastest web browser on any platform.
* ELEGANT USER INTERFACE - Safari’s clean look lets you focus on the web — not your browser.
* EASY BOOKMARKS - Organize your bookmarks just like you organize music in iTunes.
* BUILT-IN RSS - RSS tells you when new content is added to your favorite sites.
… and many others ( about 12 of them )
On the first page of apple.com/safari they say this browser is up to 2 times faster than Internet Explorer.
I personally tested this browser and it`s true ..it`s a lot faster that IE but not so much than Firefox . The thing that upset me is that it uses a lot of memory, aproximatly 3 times more than Firefox.
You can download a demo movie of the program here !
