Apple Safari browser. Wow. Apple has developed a web browser for OS X. Safari is available as a public beta at the moment. It has the same feel as the other iTools. Coolest feature for me is spell checking in form fields. Right click on words see correct spelling. Can underline in red words that spelled miscorrectly. Yippee!
Will post links to reviews as I find them in the news aggregator. Currently being discussed at:
* Dive into Mark
* web graphics
* 7nights [ia/ - information architecture news]
>> News from Apple. The IA/ post doesn't say much but he collects three other sites that do say more. Apple has chosen to release their own browser, Safari. I was only surprised by this for a minute or so, then I realized it fits in with their other iApps endeavors. The only real surprise is that they built the inards of it from the konquerer source code. I use iCab myself which I believe turns around portions of the Mozilla code, but which seems largely home brewed by Alexander Clauss. From what I've read here I can't see myself switching just to make Steve Jobs happy. I haven't really grasped the entire iTools/iApps /iLife/.Mac thing yet.
As notably is what is happening to Apple's product line. They've discovered people actually like the 12" powerbook, so that gets G4 treatment and better graphics. I can even tell them why people like it - because you can actually carry that one around with you. People also seemed to prefer the eMac to the new iMac despite Apples best efforts not to have that happen. They seem to be having a hard time aligning product and price point with customer
