I am using Camino and DeskBrowse.

Deskbrowse is really clean in terms of interface and can browse in full screen.

There's one browser i wanna try it is Omni web http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omniweb/

It's not free though, but the features are really power pack! Any users out there using Omniweb care to share your review?

Safari is the best in term of interface and functions. As for some pages which can't be load.. I don't think I have much problem with it.

Quick Rundown of Browser Pros and Cons

FireFox
Pros:

Cool feature: extensive support for plugins, themes, and add-ons
Acceptable support for CSS and Web Standards compared to IE

Cons:
It's ported to OS X and not a native browser
It uses Gecko, which performs horribly on Mac OS X
Windows-style buttons and UI elements
Can be slow at times

OmniWeb Beta

Pros:

Uses latest WebKit framework
Cool feature: Interesting sidebar tabs function
You can set preferences for each web page
Saves browsing sessions
Shared bookmarks

Cons:
Costs money - who wants to pay for a browser?

Safari/WebKit
Pros:
Cool feature: Built-in DOM inspector
Nightly build available with latest WebCore

Cons:
Nightly Build is sometimes unstable
Plug-in architecture is crappy

Camino

Pros:

Based on Cocoa - more Mac-like than FireFox
Integration with Mac OS X Standards

Cons:
It uses Gecko, which performs horribly on Mac OS X

i've never owned a mac, but on the many occasions that i've encountered using macs i prefer to use safari..

the interface is just perfect and you can see many windows users trying their best to configure firefox to look like safari laugh.gif

I have tried Safari, Camino, Omniweb, Opera 9 and Flock

Personally, 1) the fastest browser goes to --> Camino & Flock
2) Features goes to ---> Opera 9 got tonnes of features incl. the torrent function too.
3) for Stability ---> Safari
4) Omniweb is features rich too but a bit heavy in term of speed.

Of the above, I would recommend Flock (firefox engine) for those who "kaki" blogging thumbup.gif
