Safari 3 beta release - for Mac AND now Windows

Running a software development team one of my duties is to QA our products and ensure that they work on all modern desktops. It must work under all operating system conditions and, in the case of browser-based products, also perform exactly the same across all modern browsers. The bane of my life to date was working with Safari on Mac. Although reasonably fast and elegant, being available on only one platform it limited a user to websites that supported it. Many banks, for instance, never supported Safari because of the limited user base of Mac users.

Well now Version 3 is out. And... it works on Windows. I presume that the GPL Konqueror code has been ported and we've finally got another strong contender in the browser stakes to choose from.

Here it is for those that are interested in driving the beta:
