Mac users - better browser then Safari?

Seems as if Safari is lacking in regards to a decent browser. What else is everyoe using instead?

Me too, on advice from a recent post. It seems faster than FF and Safari and believe it or not, is more compliant than Safari (google docs, eg).

It's a bit cleaner looking than safari and ff, too.

+1 for Camino. It uses keychain to store passwords/usernames, it's fast, and it seems at least as stable as FF.

I've had good luck with Safari, Camino and Firefox. Firefox is my favorite. The tabbed browsing seems better.

Haven't tried Safari (I'll give it a go just to see) but it'll take a lot to convince me it's better than FF. Firefox is the schiznit. LOADS of great modifications available.

Thanks Monkey....yep I deleted it cuz I just googled Camino and found it immediately. I'll download it and try it. I don't particularly like FF but Safari does not work well with the PP forum.

BTW, Internet Expl is dead for Mac....no longer supported as I understand it.

I've tried them all and settled on Camino. Doesn't have the mods available for FF, but it seems a bit faster.
