This came up on the Lasso list. Not sure how true it is, but John Gruber claims Safari currently earns Apple about $2 million per month, and would generate much much more with Windows users also using Safari: "It’s not widely publicized, but those integrated search bars in web browser toolbars are revenue generators.
