I'm on Camino now, seems to work faster than FF but it has a pulsating cursor.
I guess you are talking about the new version right? Cause I don't have any problems with Camino but I haven't yet downloaded the latest update.
About Camino crashing out, just once and a while (much less then anoying) Camino does takes a trip home without warning me but so does Firefox and so does Safari (Safari even more if you ask me) so I have no reason to complain about that.
Krissel converted me to Camino and I'm really pleased with it.
Yes... it is faster then Firefox.
Probably doesn't come with all the bells and whistles like Firefox or others but all I want is a good and fast browser.
