A gift? I don't think so. As for the multiple versions, can you run multiple versions of Safari on a Mac? When Safari 2.0 came out you couldn't even run it on anything before 10.2 or 10.3 so the new features in a freaking web browser had to be paid for.
As for allow PC developers to test with, who cares. Nobody uses it. Even the Mac people I know hate safari and use Firefox. The reason I'll bitch about it because one guy is going to be a jackass and complain that some site doesn't work in Safari for the PC and wants it fixed. To which I'll gladly say no. Safari currently has about 1.5% market share, just below Opera. > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave l [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, June 11, 2007 6:20 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Safari on Windows XP and Vista - Never though I'd see the > day. > > well tw you should see how glorious ie looks running on parallels... the > fonts are dismal. > > The thing is at least apple is now letting windows people be able to use > safari on a pc which just helped out pc developers a GREAT deal when they > need to check and see how it looks in safari. > > I would assume that this is Apple showing off and trying to get customers > to macs but as a developer its great to see.
