1. Which one do you have?
And how long have you had it?

I've got a Mini, and have been very happy with it. It has supplanted my PC for all of my daily uses. Once every week or two, I boot up my PC to play a game with friends, but that's the only time I turn it on. When I get my iPhone, it will sync to the Mac, not the PC.

I'm looking forward to 10.5 Tiger, that's probably when I'll buy an iSight to do video conferencing. Because then I can buy a NEW Mac and give the whole setup to my folks so we can chat via video. :-P

5. why do you use that horrid
Edited on Sat Jul-14-07 10:51 AM by jasonc
PC based browser, use Camino.

Firefox was originally written for the PC, it works on a mac because it has a translation step written in.

Camino still uses the wonderful Gecko rendering engine, but is written in Cocoa and is fully integrated with the OS, unlike Firefox.

www.caminobrowser.org

Camino is FAST too!

6. I love Camino
Don't know all the details like you, but I know it's always been faster and more stable than anything else I've tried, including Firefox.
