safari-ie.jpg The browser war is netering a new phase. Steve Jobs over at Apple has announced a new Safari browser that will compete with IE, Firefox and Opera on Windows.

Apple claims their browser is up to twice as fast as the competition, and the public beta of Safari 3 is being released today as a free download for Mac OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista.

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

The Mac-only browser already has a 5% market share and the new Windows version is said to be like “a glass of ice water to somebody in hell!”. Try it out for yourself in beta here.

I’ve loaded it on to my machine and i can report that it is noticeably faster than Firefox 2 and IE 7. However I do have numerous extensions loaded into my Firefox installation so it’s not necessarily a fair comparison.
