During the break, Apple released a production version of its popular Safari web browser for Microsoft Windows. Early benchmarks indicate that Safari is the fastest-loading web browser on the PC, and the first to correctly render images with embedded color profiles. In other words, if you routinely view professionally-produced images on the PC, you’ll probably want to download Safari, because Internet Explorer hasn’t been showing you what photographers and artists want you to see. (You can see an example of the difference here; Safari is in the background, Firefox, which renders images in the same way as Internet Explorer, is in the foreground.)
Most importantly, though, Safari for PC gives PC users a chance to see what the world looks like for their Mac-using colleagues, and gives us all a much-needed second cross-platform browser, now that Internet Explorer no longer supports the Mac.
If you use iTunes or QuickTime on Windows, you should see Safari in Software Update, otherwise, you can download it directly at http://www.apple.com/safari.
