Apple released the latest version of its browser. The only one, the company claims, able to compete for the title of world's fastest browser on both Macs and PCs.
"Safari 3.1 for Mac and Windows is blazingly fast, easy to use and features an elegant user interface," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. "And best of all, Safari supports the latest audio, video and animation standards for an industry-leading Web 2.0 experience."
Officially, loads web pages 1.9 times faster than IE 7 and 1.7 times faster than Firefox 2. In addition, the browser runs JavaScript up to six times faster than other browsers.
Last but not least in the pack of goodies, Safari 3.1 is the only surfing software able to support the new video and audio tags in HTML 5, CSS Web Fonts and CSS animations.
