I can't decide which I like better.

Camino 2.0 beta or Safari 4.0 beta.

Both have features I like, camino is simple and very, very fast, but still has issues.

Safari is great and also very fast, but crashes from time to time, and is missing some features at the moment.

Any other mac users have this problem?

3. I use Firefox primarily,

w/Opera as my main backup.
My last experience with Safari a few years back was less than optimal. Crashed a LOT.
Camino even moreso.
But I have no current experience w/either, so I'm just tossin' this stuff out for whatever it's worth...
Firefox is the easiest, fastest, most reliable browser I know of for mac.

it is great on a PC, not so much on a mac.

6. because it is bloated and slow

needs its own shell in which to run on a mac, does not have keychain integration, nor is it integrated with ANYTHING in the OS.

etc...

9. I use both Safari and Firefox on my Mac

Overall, I prefer Firefox, but the differences are subtle. Safari has some plug-in issues, mostly.

11. I'm using OMNI now and I love it. Firefox was really unstable and Safari too limited

for editing that I need to do.

:hi:
