Apple has ported their Safari web browser to run on Microsoft Windows (put that old cocoa source to use) but you may be best to wait a little longer given the initial reports on its readiness in areas of security and stability and a update will be coming in the future.

I find it interesting as it seems Firefox is the preferred browser on Apples machines but perhaps this is a new plan to expand and catch up to Firefox, Opera, iCab, and Internet Explorer. For those that develop and maintain web sites, this will add one more number to the pieces of a puzzle for testing your sites appearance for browsers but competition is good. Now if they would only release OSX for Windows. 🙂
