Apple Releases Safari Web Browser For Windows

Apple has announced that it has released a beta version of its Safari web browser for Windows XP and Vista operating system. The browser can be downloaded at Apple's web site which claims it will bring up web pages twice as fast as Microsoft's Internet Explorer 7.

It is nice! Bookmarks and history is crashing for me, it can't render N4G correctly. Default fonts settings are ugly.
I think I'll stick with good ol' Firefox. :)

firefox.

Anyways if i get safari envy, i can probably get a safari theme for firefox.

It does open tabs faster then IE 7 but like TnS said default fonts are not up to par with IE7. I think I may stick with it for now though.

You need to download all these plug ins. Looks like you already did one though.

Wow I never knew most of those exsisted. Again though I really do like the Safari browser. It loads so much faster in IE. Its almost like I have a faster Internet connection.

Bill Nye6174d ago

So,your point is... choice is bad? Or competition is bad?

I don't see what you're whining about. If the news doesn't interest you, just move along.

BIadestarX6174d ago

Well... good for the end user... sucks for us... web developers.. now we have another browser to check javascript compability, ajax, css, html, divs, etc. I just tried the damn browser... some web pages do not work... there seem to be a javascript issue... and how the heck do I enable javascript console on this thing!? anybody knows? Is it possible to debug javascript on this?

Helldivers 2 Players Now Move To Fix Game's Reputation On Steam After Sony's U-Turn

Helldivers 2 will no longer require a mandatory PSN log-in on Steam, confirms PlayStation after a major protest by the community.

XiNatsuDragnel12h ago

That's good the players are now correcting those reviews.

Sonic18812h ago(Edited 2h ago)

So basically they're removing and correcting their fake negative review scores 😂.

MeteorPanda1h ago

How was it a fake negative? They didnt want the psn account, they listened, so the negative review is no longer valid and they're reverting.

Gamingsince19811h ago

@meteorpanda

They shouldn't have bought the game in the first place then, it was always a requirement from day one, it was even on the steam page for the game on day one, funny how a free psn account is too far but origin app needed or ubisoft app needed is all fine, even gamepass that needs an xbox account and also an origin account to use all the games is fine 🙄

What about the regions that can't create PSN accounts? The game was being sold there, people were playing the game from there and suddenly they would have lost the ability to play the game.

darthv722h ago

Hell hath no fury like a gamer scorned.

Gamingsince19811h ago

Yet we can't stop loot boxes or other apps being needed , like origin and ubisoft .....

derek1h ago

The reviews are worthless this move proves it. The actual game remains unchanged. Sony is going to regret giving these pc dummies this amount of sway over their releases on pc.

Aphrodia30m ago(Edited 29m ago)

And just how are they going to regret it? By pc gamers rewarding Sony with more sales? You know that the majority of sales are coming from PC don't you? I also wish that gamers didn't have to resort to backlash but Sony needs to stop being so freaking ignorant and arrogant to the point of believing they are above ridicule. Did you forget how anti consumer blunders helped sink the xbox brand with xbox one, and has still not recovered from? People like you can't even see that backlash isn't just about gamers getting what they want it also helps companies from getting completely out of touch and up their own asses to the point of consumers ditching the brand.
