Netscape seems to be integrated with all the Firefox applications. though the functionalities of these browsers are nearly same, they have to come up with Browser Crash function that can reduce the issue. all the browsers are same except the navigation bar and the presentation style etc.

Apple placed its bet with a Safari “a la Windows” and did a terrible job. The browser continually crashes, freezes or render weird web pages. If they wanted Apple wanted impress us, they should have waited and come up with a polished product. I’m afraid it will be another Apple Lisa.

I, for one will keep on using Mozilla Firefox. In my opinion, this is the best browser around and sets the quality standards for others to follow.

Sorry Jobs. Safari for Windows is not for me.

It took them this long because shipping a browser product isn’t easy! Plus I’m sure it was more of an upper management hold up than building the browser itself. I haven’t played with it yet. I suspect that they don’t necessarily want Safari nor iTunes to be great on Windows.

Yeah, I’m not surprised at all. In fact, I’m wondering why it took them this long. This is good news for people who want to test their web pages in Safari but don’t own a Mac, and that’s probably part of the reason Apple did it in the first place. It also lets mostly-Apple outfits standardize on a single browser.

As for the QuickTime issue, here’s to hoping the element makes it into HTML5.

P.S.: Wouldn’t want to be Opera right now, in spite of the fact that they make a darn good browser.
