What are you guys using on YOUR PowerBook?

Use the search, question has come up many many times.

Also search for "Mac is not an acronym", k thx

Because Powerbooks are so old and they still use PPC processors, i only use them to seed & leech torrent files 24h/7.

that makes no sense

Both browsers are about the best you can use these days. Safari's webkit engine might give you a slight speed advantage versus the feature rich extensibility of Firefox. Personally, I don't care much about the extensions for Firefox and usually use Safari. However, in some cases I use Firefox and it pays off to have both on your system.

I've found Firefox to be gearing more towards the Intel Macs lately. Firefox 2.0 was reasonably fast on my 1.5, but 3.0 is slower than molassas in January. I use Safari, it's pretty quick.

I was a fan of Camino when I had my iBook, simply because firefox was too slow, but I never really liked the Panther version of safari.

The downside of Camino, no Firefox plugins.

Firefox

Mine keeps my girlfriend entertained while I'm on my MBP.

Anyone interested in a ie5 dmg?

Made perfect sense to me, he always used either Safari or FF, as opposed to say Opera or Camino, but he can't remember which of the two he used the most right now.

too addicted to my extensions for anything but firefox.

Still sounds fine to me. Back to the topic, I used Safari on my G4.

Got Safari on my G4, I mainly use it as the bedroom machine while I use my Lenovo Y730 for gaming and such.

I have iLife and iWork 09 on here too w/ Leopard, although the dock seems slower and im not as big of a fan as the visual style (Vista=Aqua>Leopard). But I use it when Im in the bedroom and not really in the mood to boot up games and just want to answer email, although this is the machine I use at LAN parties for AoE2 and Quake 4.

And for the record, Safari is only ok in my opinion, on my equivalent Windows PC, Internet Explorer seems much faster, but that could also be the slightly newer wireless card.

Reminder to all G4 owners to max out their ram, max up their laptop hard drive to the 250gb Western Digital and disable dashboard on Leopard.
