Safari For Windows – Quick Review

By Cugone ( June 11, 2007 at 8:07 pm) · Filed under Hack
About 10 seconds after starting up Apple’s Safari for Windows I decide to click the small cross (+) button available on the Toolbar. Here’s what it does:
This happens every single time I click it. What does it do anyway? Bookmarks?
It also crashes when I use the search box on apple.com. The browser looks awesome and it’s pretty fast too, but I think they rushed the Beta.
I dislike that Opera was rated as slowest in the HTML performance benchmark with 6.22 seconds after IE7 with 4.63. That’s marketing bullshit.
Apparently it passes the Acid2 Test, but after refreshing the page it somehow fails. What’s up with that?
Overall I think Safari for Windows is going to be a nice browser, but right it’s only useful for apple junkies. Definitely not better than Opera or FireFox.Overall score: 2/5
The + crash error log:
