The Incredible...
First of all, lets just say that IE is better on Windows than Mac, ok?
-Well, it MUST be better because it is version 6.xx on Windows while on the Mac is stucked at 5.xx
-It MUST be better because supposedly is a part of Windows OS whereareas on the Mac is just another app
-It MUST be better because the team who works in the Windows version is HUGE while, and this is the best part, the whole Mac team responsible for all Microsoft products on the Mac is just 150 people
But then again on the Mac we don't get all those security holes, viruses, etc. as well as we don't get THAT many crashes while using IE
I don't know about you but last time I checked, security and stability as well as performance is the best next thing and NOT just features... So, you see, maybe just maybe, IE for OS X is a better version of IE for Windows Oh, and here is the best part of IE for OS X which I do not trade with any feature of the IE6 of Windows: I can Trash the IE for X if I don't want it... Can you do this in Windows?
As for Safari, while great it is just a beta of the unreleased version 1... Can one imagine when the app will go up to version 6 what's going to be like? I for one can't. However, I bet that M$ would like to have what currently Safari has even with version 5.xx of IE for Windows
As for Apple offering their software for Windows: While I think that it would be cool, I think that is not even possible without compromising the quality of their software... Example: Even on Mac where Apple has 90% control of the hardware they try hard to make software so stable and awesome in general. That's why we see from time to time updates which make an already ok app, a better one... I hate to admit it but the only way for Apple to produce the same quality software on the Dark Side is the way of giving them first the OS X and then everything else
Also, note that they currently offer the iPod and QuickTime which basically are the same as the Mac versions but the Dark Side seems not to bother THAT much with them... And you know why? Simply because they aren't coming from M$ with their Windows + they cannot understand the difference between quality and el cheapo stuff out there...
Last, I hope that Apple will offer us not just an Office alternative in features but also a better suite in stability, compatibility, performance, integration with the ability to scale upwards (small, medium, medium to large, large networks) because right now this a BIG hole in Apple's switch thing + games... But this is a story for some other time
