Ever wondered why they say once you go Apple you don't go back? Now you've got a chance to see for yourself. You can now download the Apple browser for your Windows machine and feel the Apple experience.
You might go back however if you're a bit stubborn or you're just too used to your existing browser but I would ask that you give it a bit of time.
You won't be disappointed and you may soon find you're opening Safari without giving Explorer a second thought.
If you're using Firefox the pull might be a bit harder and chances are you've got everything just how you like it, so it might be a race Safari has no chance of winning. Still, you can give it a go and see what all the fuss is about.
But how did I find it? Well, it's not as quick as I had hoped for after reading all the blurb, but it was certainly quicker than Internet Explorer.
Pages seemed to take as long to load as they do with Internet Explorer. I initially thought this was a cache issue but after a few days of use it hadn't changed and Firefox was still quicker.
In fact I tested it against Opera, another free and excellent browser, and it was about the same. So if you're using Internet Explorer now and are thinking of giving it a go, then you will be impressed.
Overall, a very decent browser that looks very good. The community behind Firefox and Opera make them my first two choices but I will keep Safari on my machine and use it every now and then, but it has some catching up to do first if it hopes to steal away a few of us Firefox junkies.
 Browser speeds according to Apple. Personally, I'd put Firefox first and Opera ahead of IE, but that's just me on my machine!
