This is part of a new segment I will be starting, there will be others but I figure this is a pretty good one to have. There are a lot of weird things about IE6 (and lower) and even IE7 browsers that make most web developers want to tear their eyes out and ignite them where they fall.

Thats right, Safari is now available for Windows for all of you Safari lovers out there. I don’t know that I would neccesarily include myself in the Safari loving group but I definetely see it as a tool that will come in handy when ensuring that a web site is working in all browsers.
Now only if Konquerer would come out for windows, things would get interesting. At any rate the software runs great for me on Windows XP SP2 (Tested on 3 XP SP2 machines) I also tested it on a Media Center PC and it worked fine and tested it on a Windows Vista Ultimate computer and Safari worked fine also.
Apparently though I may be a rare case because there have been reports of it crashing constantly or having other weird issues. Roger from 456 Berea Street said that the software never even started up on his XP machine but worked great on OSX.
At any rate, Safari is now working on Windows so we have a new option in the browser war. Personally I will probably stay with Firefox, mostly for the extensions. I could deal with losing the memory issues with Firefox though

He currently has a list of over 40 web sites that are going to be participating on April 5th with the CSS Naked day. (more…)
