Why Windows on Safari / Only One Real Rock
[Read the article: A rocky Windows trek for Apple's Safari browser ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]nadador: Partly to push for web standards (which helps keep Microsoft from colonizing the web by tying it to proprietary technologies), partly for mindshare, but probably mostly because Apple gets a kickback from Google by including a Google search field in Safari. Mozilla makes their income (about $60M last year, I believe) from this.
Farhad: really, the only seriously rocky thing here is Apple's rather obnoxiously aggressive way they've pushed this out. They need either to make the "Ignore this update" option more discoverable or introduce *new* software like Safari unchecked as a default.
