Steve Jobs looking for a fight with Firefox!
At last Monday’s WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs surprisingly released the Safari 3 beta to not only Mac users, but Windows users as well, in an attempt to increase the amount of Safari users in total on both platforms. In the presentation however, John Lily, of Mozilla, noticed that Steve basically indicated that he plans to wipe out all PC competitors to leave only Internet Explorer and Safari standing a chance.
“But make no mistake: this wasn’t a careless presentation, or an accidental omission of all the other browsers out there, or even a crummy marketing trick. Lots of words describe Steve & his “Stevenotes”, but ‘careless’ and ‘accidental’ do not. This is, essentially, the way they’re thinking about the problem, and shows the users they want to pick up,” says Lily.
In short, Jobs has made plans to knock out Firefox, Opera, and any other PC or Macintosh browser aside from Internet Explorer. Can it be done? Obviously Steve seems to be blinded by power, thinking that Safari for Windows will be a common application for consumer Windows users.
