Existing users, 
The editor says the new Safari is faster than any other Mac web browser. I heard the same thing about OmniWeb and have been using it until it got buggy on me with the latest build so I've gone back to Firefox.
I am interested to hear anyone else's experience with the latest Safari as opposed to OmniWeb, Firefox and Camino. I have not tried Opera or Camino lately as the last time I tried them both were buggy. I don't care to jump browsers all the time and Firefox has overall been good and more compatible with more websites than the alternatives besides (blechh) Explorer.
Any comments would be helpful...thanks in advance!

I think OmniWeb is a great product, but sometimes it still ahs problems with showing some sites. It also eats memory. There will be a new one soon, so I am looking forward to it.An editor that picks a browser that till can't manipulate tabs, can't save tab sets, and auto-save incase of crashes must be getting paid to say it. I lose these basic functions and need a third-party add-on to get them!? Not very professional for an app Apple lord over. Why these things can't be standard is beyond me.
THe last thing I am really looking for is to have the browser you use by choice to be a full screen browser as the desktop background. Everyone uses a browser the same way as a the system of a computer these days. It would be great to show desktop and still have a browser there that can be activated and used without windows returning to the screen. I wish someone would do this. Hoping OmniWeb will do it, but if Saft can add it to his feature-rich setup or Safari, I'd go back just for that functionality.

I first tried Firefox in version 1.5 and raved to others how fast it was compared to Safari and Explorer. However, here we are two weeks later and I'm back to using Safari most of the time. Firefox has turned all buggy on me. I want the Firefox 1.5 I had two weeks ago so I keep trying it again and again (I'm on it right now) - but I want it back.Sunday, January 15 2006 @ 12:18 PM PST
