Safari Browser

Safari is Apple's hit Internet browser allowing for quick and easy access to the web with a load of extra features thrown in too. Setting up Safari is very easy, if you have a Mac it will come pre-installed so you'll be able to browse the web instantly. If you have a Windows based computer however you'll have to download it from apple's website. The install is very quick, without the need for a restart, so you'll be ready to go as soon as possible. When you first launch Safari you'll be treated to a quick welcome sequence that only happens the first time and then you go straight into the browser. Safari itself is very clean cut (especially on a ...  Read the complete review

I'm a Windows user and so my experiences with Safari have been limited. However, as a web developer, it's part of my job to know about all different web browsers and so I've been playing around with Safari for the last few weeks. My conclusion: I don't like it much. For anyone that doesn't know - Safari is a web browser along the lines of (the awful) Internet Explorer, (the brilliant) Firefox and (the pretty good) Google Chrome and Opera. It's available for Windows and Mac as a free download from apple.com/safari, although like most Apple software it's a prett hefty download at around 27mb without Quicktime or a hefty 47mb with Quicktime. Installation is ...  Read the complete review

I am no expert at the Safari browser and recently have discovered that my local college has apple mac's installed and open for use. On my first go of the Safari browser I found it odd and unuseful, and unfortunately I still find that today. One main reason why I hate the safari browser is you cannot open more than one at once! instead you get tabs and to get to each different tab you must endure 20 hours of mouse clicking! (well not 20 hours but something like that) Also I have tried and tried to make the Browser slightly bigger but it always ( yes, Always) disallows me from doing this. Me personally I like my browser to cover the whole screen but this ...  Read the complete review

People who know me will agree on one thing. I absolutely despise everything Apple. However, in the Safari browser I have found a shining light in what I otherwise consider as a corporation who designs for the lazy. Safari is a web browser much like Firefox or Internet Explorer that boasts that it is the fastest browser available. With some skepticism I decided to download the newest version, Safari 4, and give it a try on my PC. On installation you are confronted with the usual gimmicy Apple rubbish however following installation you encounter a browser that is not only what it claims to be, but so much more. I was surprised how much quicker the ...  Read the complete review

Back in the day you either used Netscape or Internet Explorer, now everyone's at with the likes of Google and Apple throwing their names into the realm of Internet browsers. I'm not really fussed about what browser to use but I was finding Internet Explorer slowing up with the current demands of the Internet and the share weight of whistles and bells advertisements that seem to litter web pages you visit on a daily basis. I had read that Apples latest release of Safari offered a good speed of internet browsing so I thought I'd give it a try and went for the free download. Taking on a similar mantle to the browsing used on their ipods ...  Read the complete review
