Apple Safari For Windows

18 March 2008

safariToday I discovered there is a version of Apple Web browser Safari for Windows. I’m always up to trying new things so downloaded it and installed it on my XP desktop.

I was mostly curious how my website performs with it, and wanted to see if anything is broken, but it appears everything looks good. There is a screenshot of my site in Safari on the right. Since I designed and coded my site to work with both IE and Firefox, I figured it would pretty much work in other browsers as well.

If you want to try Safari on your Windows system here is a link to download it.

Cheers.

Update:

The more I’ve played with Safari for Windows, the more I’ve noticed that it looks fuzzy and not sharp and clear like Firefox and IE. I won’t be using it anymore for this reason alone. I’ve read in other blog posts if you go to to the appearance options and choose “light” for fonts, it helps. I tried, and it does help, but not completely. If you Google “safari for windows fuzzy“, you’ll see many people saying the same thing. Maybe Apple will fix it in a later version.
