Eating Apple Pie

I am quite excited by the latest news from Apple. It is a little strange I have not blogged on Mac-related developments, per say, before. From 1990 - 1992, I worked for Apple back in the UK.

CEO Steve Jobs was speaking at a conference of developers for Apple products in San Francisco, California yesterday when he announced that Apple has launched a version of its web browser Safari for Windows, competing head to head with Microsoft's Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox. A test version of Safari 3 for Windows XP, Vista and Apple Macs running OSX, is available for download from the Apple website.

Steve Jobs also used the conference to lift the lid on new features of its forthcoming operating system (OS) for Macs, called Leopard. Leopard is due for release in October and will cost $129.

It's exciting times right now for Apple. With the green light also being given to third-party development of new applications for its forthcoming iPhone mobile phone, life in Cupertino must be fun.
