Always Watching the All-Seeing Eye

 

That's funny...

... the Safari 3 beta seems to work just fine for me:

Safari 3 (beta), running on Windows XP.


And even though it's an early beta, I'd like to point out that many of Apple's beta products exceed the quality of your average Microsoft release!

If you're interested in it, go here to attain the zen happiness of a virus-free internet, even on your vastly inferior Windows PC. For free.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

**Damn*, Brian... why you gotta play me like that? :>

I'm sure it IS my vastly inferior Windows XP computer. I was a mac head until 2001, then I had to switch to PCs for work. Now that Mac can run both Windows and Mac OS with Bootcamp, going back to Mac seems like a good idea.

For now, I have to deal with blanky goodness from Safari on this computer. Hey, glad it works for you, though. I'll have to wait until it's out of beta to try again.

*Hehehe! Glad I could entertain you for a moment!

Seriously, the beta is a bit rough around the edges - I ran into a handful of bugs related to form submission right after I finished putting together this post.

Murphy's Law and all...

Hopefully, they'll get the bugs worked out here soon. It really is an awesomely fast web browser, and has served me very well these past few years.

Regards, and keep up the awesome work!

*I'd probably use Firefox most of the time anyway, no matter what platform I'm on, but I definitely wanted to try Safari to see how it performed.

For now I'm going to go find out how much a sweet Macbook Pro will cost me, and if I can get by with only one kidney. Gotta pay for that sucker somehow. :>

*Hehehe... For most websites, Safari is pretty awesome (Safari 2, that is). It's fast, virus free, and relatively non-crashy.

Of course, if you use a lot of add-ons and plugins, Firefox is way ahead. I just can't stand the whole monolithic "Mozilla-ness" of it.

If you're looking to unload a kidney or two, I'm sure I could make some calls to the local Chinese "volunteer" organ donation suppliers... wink wink.

Kidding, of course! :-)

Regards,
Brian
