It looks like Microsoft has officially abadoned the IE for Mac project. It’s not like they have done anything to it recently, but it is now official. But, who cares? I don’t think anyone is using IE for Mac. It’s UI is horrible, compatibility, CSS and everything else about it is old. I didn’t even have IE on my Mac, only reason I downloaded it once was to see a bug that MS had on MSN.com which made IE crash and I forgot to remove it until now!
On a broader note, this means that fewer sites can justify having IE only versions of their sites. They cannot say, “Well, get IE for Mac and it should work.” No. Start clean-coding your sites for Firefox and Safari compatibility or lose 6 percent (and growing) of your customers. [TUAW]
Yep, it is true and even Microsoft say on their site to “migrate to more recent web browsing technologies such as Apple’s Safari” but it is not like anyone would use IE for Mac. Safari is great and I love it, but personally I prefer FF1.5 because of the extensions and the other stuff. But Safari is a solid browser and it is great, much better than the IE 6 that MS pulled out of the trash can.
