X 3
Nearly 5 yrs and not even a screen freeze
Now you PC users tell me you can go that long without anything happening or you having to constantly have to tweak it to keep it running smooth
Oh not to mention there is no need for drivers on Mac's.
Yes they are more expensive than pc's but it's worth every penny.
Who want a 1996 serria for £200 that breaks down every day, when you can have a Ferrari for £1000 that only breaks down once every 10 yrs

So is Camino better than Safari? and why should I consider changing over to Camino?
There's not many sites that don't work in Safari now is there?

I've used Camino through the versions ever since it came out. I just like Mozilla products and it does almost everything I need. There are some sites that won't work with it (including my overseas payments service) so then I use Firefox. Because I do my own website I have quite a few browsers on the Mac so that I can check compatibility with them. Safari works well, insofar as I know. It is just a matter of personal preference I guess.

Safari works quite well indeed. And you can expect less and less sites havng problematic code for Safari as it uses the same html rendering engine as Konqueror and Google Chrome. Even if Chrome does not become an enormous success just the fact that Google is backing it will make more webmasters make sure their site simply works.
