My first Silverlight experience on Safari

Open Safari after installing the plug in.

Drag the “default.html” from the Chess/Run folder in the 1.1 SDK into Safari.

Wait while the beach ball spins.

Boom.

(sigh)

Futzed around some more. Now I get a Javascript error from Silverlight when I load the page, if I reload the page it bombs out and Safari crashes. Who says Macs don’t crash, they do if they are running Microsoft code! My guess is that the 1.1 version of Silverlight is Intel OS X only.(sigh again). Is it even worth it to try playing around with it at this stage? I may try on my Windows PC (after I create a Virtual machine and install the alpha there). Just when you think Microsoft has changed, same crap different platform.
