Apple says that more than one million copies of Safari for Windows were downloaded in the first 48 hours since the free public beta was made available on Monday.
Apple claims that Safari 3 is the fastest browser running on Windows, rendering web pages up to twice as fast as Internet Explorer 7 and up to 1.6 times faster than Firefox 2, based on the industry standard iBench tests. Safari 3 supports Internet standards including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SVG and Java. Safari updates are delivered through Apple’s Software Update, and the first update for Safari for Windows Public Beta which fixes some early reported bugs was released last night.
Safari 3 for Windows requires Windows XP or Windows Vista, a minimum of 256MB of memory and a system with at least a 500 MHz Intel Pentium processor.
