Just switched to Firefox under OS X. Got really sick of Safari's shortcomings. What are you using?

Firefox. I can't stand using any of the other browsers until they have an AdBlock addon.

I don't do a lot of heavy browsing on my Mac (I have it mostly for novelty/Mac-only apps purposes), so I use Safari 3 Beta because of the speed. Before that came out (and if it crashes a lot, which is what happens from what I've been hearing) I was using Camino.

I use Camino 1.5
Firefox was just not pretty enough for the OS X Tiger UI and it was a little slower to load.

I use firefox.

I like Safari and would use it, but I have one problem with it. There is no drop down arrow next to the address bar. Sometime I don't feel like typing in an address and just want to click the drop down arrow, like I can in every other major browser, and select a Web site that I recently visited.

using firefox, i have a few issues (that did not get addressed with the new beta) with safari. i can't make it automatically open links to a new tab and i can't selectively allow sites to use popups. both of which annoy the hell out of me.

Firefox here, but mainly for consistency with my Windows and Linux systems. I also got used to having a multitude of extentions. Adblock plus being the most prime example.

hehe that's probably what my parallels setup gets used most for.

I also VM Vista so I can use Google Sketchup. On native Vista, mouse-sync is off in Sketchup, so the mouse cursor is about 2-3 mm above where the line is being drawn, really makes it difficult to click on specific points. In VMWare the mouse sync is perfect, and I am just way too lazy to boot into Vista just to reinstall Sketchup and verify that it is working properly

I've been a Camino zealot since version 0.2.4~ when it was called Chimera. ;-)
