14 DAY TRIAL // The Cupertino company is proudly announcing that its famous browser Safari reached the 1 million downloads border after the Windows version of application was recently rolled out by Apple. According to the company, the first free public beta of Safari for Windows recorded this impressive number of downloads in 48 hours after the release that is quite a record for the web browsers.
Apple describes its browser as the fastest application on the Internet because it managed to beat both Firefox and Internet Explorer, the current leaders of the category. "Safari 3 is the fastest browser running on Windows, rendering web pages up to twice as fast as IE 7 and up to 1.6 times faster than Firefox 2, based on the industry standard iBench tests," Apple said. Obviously, the results recorded by the browser depend on the configuration of your computer and the Internet connection. Apple sustained the testings were made on "an iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo system running Windows XP, with 1GB of RAM."
Since Apple for Windows was released, the Internet users raised numerous security concerns because the application wasn't too safe to use. That's why Apple was quite fast and already released an improved version of the browser that is meant to correct all the issues discovered in the program.
"Safari 3 supports all modern Internet standards including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SVG and Java. Safari updates are delivered seamlessly through Apple's Software Update, and the first update for Safari for Windows Public Beta which fixes some early reported bugs was released last night," the Cupertino company mentioned.
Safari for Windows requires the XP or the Vista version of the operating system, at least 256 MB of memory and a 500 Mhz Intel Pentium processor. As usual, you can download the latest version of Safari for Windows straight from Softpedia.
