I can't remember one time Camino crashed on me, that's strange.
It might have to do with what version you're running. When I first downloaded Camino,m it was last year. So, its possible that the newer versions are more stable.
But who knows, it could crash because of what your doing.

I use 1.0.4 and it sure seems rock stable. I hear version 1.5 is coming soon. Do you know of any new features with this version?
All I know is whats on that page. But right now, on the mac thats not hooked up yet (my parents wont let me hook it up until later this week....so it's putting my articles behind schedule...)i have version 1.0.4.
But I hope Camino has more features, and a better design, because it just doesn't hit my taste (Firefox doesn't, either, but I downloaded a new theme...why can't we do that with Camino).
But those, with this latest version, are the only complaints I have.
I would love to use OmniWeb but I don't like the tabs on the side instead of the top. I feel that Firefox doesn't have a 100% Mac-like look. It is almost there, but there is something about the color scheme. The different icons at the top are not separated enough in a visual sense. Safari embeds the writing which makes them distinct, but they look kinda blah in Firefox.
On my old PowerPC Mac Mini and 10.3 Safari would once in a while get the fan running by taking up a lot of processing power with only 5 tabs open. But it hasn't happened with my new Intel Mac Mini with 10.4.
And I hate to say but they did add a nice feature to IE 7 that I would like to see in Safari. It is called Quick Tabs. It basically is like an Expose for the different IE windows you have open. It shows medium sized mini versions of all your windows inside the one IE window. You only need a graphical version once in a while but when you do it is handy and much better than OmniWebs vertical list of them.

This depends on the web content. There are today many sites that are quite heavy for a G4, but a Core Duo could go through happily. You have to test the same sites with both machines to tell with more precision.

I know this is resurrecting a dead thread but Camino is now in version 1.5. I've downloaded it and it seems stable and fast. Already my favorite browser, this only seems to make it better.
I tried it, and I loved it except for one thing: Whenever I install the latest update I can't open a browser window. It just refuses to work so I'm back to WebKit nightly builds.

Thanks Slewis, I have downloaded and tried Shiira. It is a very good browser as far as I have used it. I probably won't try to update it and avoid the problem you had.

A la Omniweb?
Haven't tried it yet, I was thinking about it but there isn't anything compelling enough to buy a browser when I switch browsers... a lot.
