Safari for Windows
June 21, 2007
Last week Apple released a beta version of Safari for Windows, with more than a million downloads in the first 24 hours. It’s neat, clean, light, quick and has great colors. For average web browsing I like Safari best, but as I find the Firefox add-ons helpful for web development I’ll probably stay with Firefox as my primary browser. (Although I must say I’m more than a bit miffed with the changes with the latest version of Firefox and the way it has messed with the tabs.) Download Safari here: Safari

Oh dear: The iPod is given a Shonky Award by CHOICE magazine
October 19, 2006
I need to first explain that "shonky" in Aussie slang means "dubious, failure, bomb, dud, underhand". So, when the Australian CHOICE magazine have issued their Shonky Awards for 2006, and the iPod is on the list, it is not a good thing! And what’s more, they have given the iPod the "CHOICE iSHONK for Dual-level Shonkyness", for the hardware failures, and for the difficulty in getting repairs under warranty. Oh dear.
