If you’re running Mac OS X, the odds are probably pretty good that your Web browser is the one Apple makes — Safari. Or you might be having a little fun with Mozilla’s Firefox on OS X (a very credible alternative to Safari).
But you’re probably not using the browser that is absolutely dominant over on all the Windows boxes — Internet Explorer. Microsoft, the maker, of course, of Explorer and Windows, has noticed that Mac users aren’t so fond of Explorer and so, in what is a remarkably rare step for this remarkable company, is actually retreating from that market and will cease even making Explorer on the Mac available.
That will happen in just a few days so, if you’ve never used Explorer on the Mac or just wanted to get a copy of it because you’re a collector of Web browsers, you better get moving.
