Im curious what webpage most of you use as your homepage; Apple related of course. You know like the Netscape Apple homepage, stuff like that.

Nada. I use safari's tabs to pull up all the news (Mac and Otherwise) sites that I read in the mornings. Otherwise it's blank until I know where I'm going.

I like MacMinute.com because it has fast, up-to-date news, and is generally just text and low on graphics; so it is fast loading.
otherwise I would prob just leave it blank...

Tough crowd, home pages aren't necessarily bad things, but when you're on dial up they're pure hassle.

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.

 What he said.
Before Safari, and in other browsers which allow this, I use a bit of JavaScript to resize and position the window the way I like it. But Safari doesn't allow JS to be used as a homepage, so instead my first bookmark in the bookmark bar is an ... (ellipses), which does the same thing. Useful to tame pages which insist on displaying full screen, and when Safari "sticks' to opening new pages at some weird size. (until I replace the pref file with one stored.)

My homepage is a custom start page with a collection of my most used links, hosted on my FreeBSD server (so it's accessible on all of the machines at my house, no issues when not connected (dialup) either). However I also have a tab group in Safari that I usually hit when I get online.

Same here. I used to keep it on my webserver but as of now I have a copy in my ~/Library folder of each of my Macs with the homepage pointing to the file:// address.
Otherwise, I use Google. I would use a blank page, but Google is small enough that it's not really a problem.
My startpage - Here is a copy online if you're interested.
Also, this topic is not OS X related so I'm moving it to the lounge.
