Safari for Windows Hits 1,000,000 Downloads

Just when we didn’t want another browser to test, Apple goes and joins the browser wars by releasing the beta version of Safari for Windows. Well, in case there was any doubt about whether it would get some attention, Apple says in the first 2 days after release that it was downloaded more than 1 million times. Sheesh.

NorthTemple has what I know Pete will think is a very reasonable recommendation:

By virtue of the fact that a web designer’s life is already full of cross-browser debugging, I hereby nominate IE6 to fall off the edge of the Earth. Microsoft, you have my permission to push IE7 as a mandatory update.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. If you haven’t yet, go download Safari for Windows. We will be supporting it.
