Internet Explorer

Microsoft’s Web browser has received a very public demotion in Panther. It doesn’t even appear in the Dock when you first install Mac OS X 10.3. And no wonder—not only is Safari a superior Web browser in many regards, but Microsoft has announced that it has stopped working on Internet Explorer for Macintosh.

Still, as noted in Chapter 20, certain Web sites don’t work in Safari, so it’s good to have both browsers on hand.
