What boycott?

[jsbowden]

I refuse to engage in this silliness of the 'boycott' over how LJ handles new non-paying customers, so posting I am. I haven't upped my account to plus because I don't really care about the extra functionality, but if the folks at LJ don't want to give new free accounts my minimal level of access, that's their decision. It's their site, their bandwidth, servers, and bills.

So, Apple Software Update asked me if I wanted to install something this morning, and I assumed it was a Quicktime or iTunes update because I wasn't paying much attention. Turns out, it was Safari. Um, Steve, why? What's the point of porting Safari to Windows? Seriously?

Safari? Really?

That's...sort of interesting, I guess, but just...why?

Umm... I think there has been a beta of Safari for Windows for at least a year.

As for why, it's a whole another level of jobs.

Makes it easier for Windows-oriented website developers to test against Safari.
