Unexpectedly quit and took about four months of history with it. Gone. Wiped. Zip. Except for today's--it's still here. Whoopie.

I've used Camino for years because it still loads faster than Firefox or Safari, even Beta 4. It's clean and simple, and while I wish it had more of the extensions Firefox has, it's still my main browser.
doesn't hog memory like safari

There are some sites that Safari just does not work well on, that's when I definitely use Camino.
The thing I most like about Camino, besides being a lean mozilla browser are the hidden customization features, privacy control and its overall tweakability to make it even faster and which give it more refineable search features (don't use if you don't know what you're doing).
Safari may be faster (and it does launch faster than Camino and is more stable than Camino overall), and for many 'prettier' but it's a frakking unrelenting memory hog/memory leaker! I have to quit safari many times per day to release the memory it leeches and never releases. Once Camino gets going (and it can take a while sometimes, at least the last couple of verisons of 1.6 that I've used, not sure yet about 1.6.7), but once launched, it stays comparatively lean re memory usage and it releases it along the way during usage.
Camino is similar to firefox but from my experience much faster on macs than FF -- plus apparently Firefox for mac is not very secure without numerous add-ons that make it even slower and clunkier than FF already is; really clunky and s.l.o.o.o.w on mac ppc anyway.
Opera does not have the intuitive user-friendly mac interface -- maybe it works for some but too different and hard to get used to for this long time mac and windoze user household.
These plus some other great reasons are why camino is my #2 preferred browser, at least equal to safari. I use both every day.
