Safari web browser on Windows

Safari, Apple's web browser, is now available for Windows. It is still in beta, but from what I've seen, it seems to be OK! It feels a lot like browsing the Internet on a Mac.

"The Worlds best browser, now on Windows."

In case anyone was wondering, the user agent it gives the web server is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en) AppleWebKit/522.11.3 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Safari/522.11.3.

zer0day, I didn't experience any problems. See attachment for Safari on Windows surfing Tizag.com.

A couple of years ago, Apple claimed that they would never develop any sort of software for Windows. Shortly after, they released iTunes for Windows.

Now Safari? Haha, let's see how this will turn out. =P

I'm not the only one, other people have had the same problem. I tried installing some ported mac fonts, nothing happened except I screwed up my wordpress dashboard (lol)

Same thing happened to me. I don't really care though, Firefox is good enough.

Safari can be up to 2.5 times faster.
