Safari on mac. I use Firefox as a backup on Mac and for my PC, but Safari just feels more integrated.
Got a tip for us?

I started with Opera and ended with Firefox....I'm on a PC, when I do make the the switch, I'll probably dabble with Safari.
Yup, I've found one for Windows users (it won't install on Firefox for Mac OS X though). It's designed to make Firefox look more like Windows XP. Get it here.I've been looking all over for Windows theme but haven't found it..Have you seen it?
i use firefox all the time and am even using the beta version.
although sometimes i need to use opera or safari

Roger that. I use 4.0 too. It seems to be much faster than 3.x. However, I also use Firefox 3.0.5 when I'm accessing my local community college's online web courses. Their server hates macs.. even though their computer labs are almost 50% mac. I can't wait for chrome!
Has Chrome been updated significantly since first release? If so I might have to try it again but before it would seriously choke and stall on slower hardware. Not to mention the colour scheme.
For any opera fans I love this skin theta
Chrome seems to be really fast but nothing significant has been changed since first release.. well anyway, i'm waiting for Mac version but i don't think it will take me away from Firefox
wow a lot of people use safari.
i would think that there would be tech savy people on here and see the benefits of firefox.

try pipelineing
you can find good how to's but this one is good
yup
ya i do the same, whats up with firefox sometimes not being able to play games.
Firefox all the way. I dont understand the benefits of using Safari instead of Firefox, probably because there arent many. Anything (read: 99% of things) safari does firefox can do with an addon and probably even does it better. Adblocking, download management, themeing... Firefox just wins.
Safari 99.9% of the time. Only time I switch to firefox is when Safari can't seem to do something write. I trust OS X software before I trust 3rd party.
i still think safari is the best mac browser. I like webkit, safari is quick, looks nice, and with the inquisitor plug in i have all that i need!
i do await mac chrome, but, without having a inquisitor-like plug in i dont think i would beable to browse!
osx- safari secondary:firefox,opera
windows- chrome

Firefox 3 on my Macs, Firefox 2 at School, Firefox 1 on my PC.
Although I think Sunrise looks nice, just a few bug fixes and I may switch to it fully.
