Safari for Windows, first look

Postby Damian on Thu Jun 14, 2007 10:26 pm

Reminds me of the Netscape 6 preview, could almost guarantee a crash per session.

Weak!!

Apple strikes again. I try my best to keep everything Apple away from my PC. I wont even install their movie player plugin because it wont stay as just a plugin, it insists on installing the whole app and sticking its little Q down in the system tray in the bottom right. You cant stop it from opening on boot and that uses up RAM. If I want to load it, I'll load it, it should NOT be forced on me like that. So I just plain dont use it.

Quicktime is very annoying alright. Of course you can disable it by running msconfig and stopping it from starting up.

Good sir, may I humbly request the posting of a link to said 'Quicktime Alternative' for I, as many others, cannot abide Quicktime!! Or anything with an 'i' in front of it either.

Ahh nice one mate!

The only time I ever need it is when looking at a site that requires the plugin. Some of the links Gato emails me link to sites that do. I just generally close the page down but those codecs should come in handy.
