Alright, so I'm in a little bit of a pickle here. I'm trying to decide what browser to get and stick to. So far I have, Safari, FireFox, Camino, and now Shiira. I love Safari, I've had it and used it since it first came out back in my Jaguar days... But, it does kind of suck at some things and just locks up on some pages, which is why I have FireFox. Now, FireFox is great and all, but the way it displays text on pages is just, well, crap. So I switched to Camino, pretty much FireFox but especially made for the Mac. It's great, I've been using it for a week or two now and don't have much to complain about, but now I hear of Shiira and I had to download it, and so far, even though it's been an hour at most, I like it.
What should I do?!?! How about some opinions/suggestions?

why do you need to stick to just one?

Cause it would remove some clutter from my Dock. That and I just don't like having so many apps open at once, especially if 4 of them do the same stuff basically.

Just use your favorite and keep it in the dock, and if you come to a site that's incompatible, Spotlight-open another one.
I prefer Safari.

I use both Camino and Firefox, both are very fast, but I like Firefox the best because of its expandibility. Camino seems to be faster in my experience.

Omniweb is free. The only thing is that the free version won't let you set your home page. That's it.

I use omniweb, but am dubious about that speed! Someone needs to do more tests!
|

I free'd my mind... now it won't come back.

Based on discussion on #webkit, that test is indeed flawed. Omniweb 5.5 should be similar in speed to Safari nightly builds.
