Apple Safari comes to Windows XP and Vista

Apple has done an impressive job with the Leopard OS which is currently scheduled for launch later this year.

Steve Jobs displayed some of the new features of the Leopard at the company’s Worldwide Developer Conference.

But one of the most important announcement to come at the event was that the company is now launching their Safari web browser on the Windows platform.

Apple already has iTunes and QuickTime application available on Windows and now Safari would join the bandwagon.

Jobs confirmed that Safari would be made available on both Windows XP and Windows Vista platform and the company has also released a public beta which is available on their website.

He even went on to show some statistics and ended up claiming that Apple Safari is now the fastest browser available on the Windows platform. Incidentally, Jobs compared the Safari with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox but ignored Opera.

It would be interesting to see comparisons between Opera for Windows and Safari for Windows!

Update: Apple has Opera related statistics available on their website and apparently Safari is faster than Opera too!
