Apple responds to furor over Panther-only Safari

Imagine if Microsoft released IE 6.0 only for Windows XP users. Well, you'd have to further imagine there were only 1 million XP users, and not 250 million XP users, but... anyway.

MacWorld: "Safari 1.2 'Panther-powered' Apple responds ... Apple says: 'Safari 1.2 has been designed to leverage advances in Panther not present in the Jaguar release of Mac OS X. These Panther technologies are needed to deliver Safari v1.2's most significant improvements. For example, personal certificate support is made possible by Panther-specific security technologies that are simply not available on Jaguar.'" In other words, Apple is integrating their Web browser into the operating system. Fascinating!
