Safari for Windows

While there was neat information about Apple's new Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" operating system, coming in October, there wasn't all that much amazing or unexpected during the company's keynote presentation about it today. No new computers or iPods, for instance.

What was unexpected is the new beta of the Safari browser, which is suddenly available not only for the Mac, but also for Windows XP and Vista for the first time.

UPDATE: Macworld discusses some key features of the new browser. The new Find command is awesome—finally I'm no longer hunting for the result in a sea of text. That and the draggable/tear-offable tabs are worth the upgrade in themselves.

Excellent post. Thanks Derek! I needed Safari for testing Web pages and now that Safari is available for Windows, I no longer need Macintosh! Thank you Derek for the excellent post.

The other post you had on HTML 5 and XHTML was also very useful.
