Já que não os consegues vencer, junta-te a eles... isto foi o que pensou Bill Gates há uns anos, quando começou a fazer sw (browser, aplicações de produtividade) para os Macs. Mas correu mal. Agora é a Apple e Steve Jobs a tentar a estratégia, ao desenvolver aplicações para o Windows... vamos ver como corre... :)

We think Windows users are going to be really impressed when they see how fast and intuitive web browsing can be with Safari,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “Hundreds of millions of Windows users already use iTunes, and we look forward to turning them on to Safari’s superior browsing experience too.

"When Steve Jobs announced the beta for the Apple Safari 3.0 browser for Windows XP and Vista, the first thought on many minds was 'Do we need it?' On a Mac, Apple Safari excels in some important areas — speed, rendering, standards compliance — but offers very few plug-ins, doesn't preview tabs and doesn't preview linked URLs. When the final version comes out, Safari 3.0 will probably compete directly with, and make things harder for, the Opera community, but will draw little from the existing Firefox and Internet Explorer user base.(...)In the end, Safari 3.0 beta is a mixed bag. There are some good features, but current Firefox and Internet Explorer users will probably be frustrated by the lack of add-ons and other user interface concerns."

"Blazing performance.
The fastest web browser on any platform, Safari loads pages up to 2 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and up to 1.6 times faster than Firefox 2.
And it executes JavaScript up to 2.8 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and up to 1.6 times faster than Firefox 2.
What does all that mean for you? Less time loading pages and more time enjoying them.
"

Problema: Quer dizer, já não chegava termos que nos preocupar com o IE, FireFox e Opera, agora aparece ainda mais um browser??
