Apple released today Safari browser for windows, Steve Jobs announced at Apple developers conference. Apple claims that their browser is twice as fast as the competition.

I downloaded safari to test how it goes, my site is loaded after 40 sec usually in Firefox it loads in 4 secs. In a few min’s browsing with safari my laptop became too slow, i feel it uses lot of RAM.

It comes with in-built spell checker, pop-up blocker, bookmarks import and export among others. It recognizes the plug-ins like flash player, real player etc installed on your system.

What i liked so far is Private Browsing feature, once enabled it wont save the web pages you have visited to history, it wont remember the searches you made.
