Hi everybody,

thank you so much for your messages. I like Safari because of the way it looks. I love Apple GUI, and anything that I can find with that I like. I managed to get it installed. had to update Wine. It has the Safari Icon on nthe desktop now, but when I click on it, it appears to start then nothing. Would you have any idea why that might be?

I have the Ubuntu version of Chromium installed, but that doesnt work very well, and some websites just wont work at all on it. I did think about running it in a VM, but am not sure how to install it in the VM, so decided to just try it in Wine. Saying that though, I dont have much success with wine, can never seem to get thigns to work in it.

Thank you again,

John.

I believe there isn't a native version of Safari for Linux (not sure if 
Apple ever will release one) however you may be able to get it running 
with either CrossOver Office (which you can download a trial version 
from codeweavers.com) or alternatively try running it with Wine (you can 
find Wine under Add/Remove programs or find an updated version at 
www.winehq.com

    
...

Alternatively, if you really want Safari you could run a copy of Windows
in VirtualBox, which will let you run any Windows apps you want.
