Stainless browser app for OS X

***Zardon*** · Mar 17, 2009, 05:52 PM

Anyone interested in a Chrome style app for OSX check this out

Stainless for OS X Leopard

Although Stainless started out as a technology demo to showcase our own multi-processing architecture in response to Google Chrome, we've been inspired by our growing fanbase to forge ahead and craft Stainless into a full-fledged browser. In fact, Stainless now has features you won't find in Chrome or in any other browser.

A prime example is parallel sessions, which allow you to log into a site using different credentials in separate tabs at the same time. This new technology is woven throughout Stainless, from the private cookie storage system, to session-aware bookmarks that remember the session in which they were saved. We're excited to showcase what we believe is a true browser innovation.

Please note that Stainless is in early development. The current version is still lacking some features you'd expect in a production-ready browser, but that will change as we move towards a 1.0 release. As we do so, you can check out what's new in every update by viewing our release notes from the version link to the left.

Yes its very good. The interface is very stripped down and they are using safari code. The biggest seller is the bookmarking system as it is very intuitive.

Hey, you never know you might actually like it

Nice to see a PC based forum with more open minded people than most. Hopefully I can hang around here a bit without getting flame grilled.

we've got a few members here who aren't too fond of Macs, but for the most part they're pretty civil, and with a few of the staff here at DH either already have a Mac (or more than one) or are seriously considering one, you'll feel at home

If you have any issues, let either myself of Mac Daddy know (that's a reference to his real name, not the Apple variety

)

Ok, I know, but (over 30 days)...

Sorry I missed this heads up - I definitely want to give this a try - and tell my own "Apple Dave" bud about it. Nice to see Apple staff around - a hearty welcome to you Apple_Dave!
