Apple try to conquer windows

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

If you have Quick Time or iTunes installed on your Windows machine it’s likely that you’ll get a gift from Apple very soon. Apple pushes its Windows Safari browser 3.1 as an auto update, even if you don’t have it installed already. The option to get Safari is pre-selected so non-watchful users might get it even if they don’t even know what it is.

This act from Apple reminds the behavior of companies like Microsoft, and this is why the Mozila CEO is against it, with some valid arguments IMHO.

Personally I don’t mind getting Safari on my Windows system as I need it for testing, but, anyway it won’t be 100% similar to it’s MAC twin, so testing will need to be done on the MAC OS as well.

I kinda agree with this move from Apple, you know the say: "when in Rome, do as the Romans do", same goes for the Internet. Just remember Apple, if you wanna be a Roman then give us a less restrictive SDK and be more open to third party in general, as the Roman do ;)
