Camino goes universal

For some odd reason, the Camino web site only links to 1.0b2 at the moment-- but the RC1 version can be found on the FTP site:

I recently brought my IMAC 333mhz machine out of mothballs and found Firefox to be clunky and slow (though it is my default browser on my Ibook). Camino to the rescue. A fine solution for older, slower Macs.

#12 - thanks. Strange, I've had that issue with it forever, and have been tracking the bug report for it, which still isn't closed...never actually checked the app.

Thanks!

Matt - You can cmd-click to open a link a new tab. Check the preferences - it done that for years.

Phil - Omniweb ISN'T available as a universal binary yet. All the other Omni apps are, not Omniweb

#9 It's been in Camino since forever. Open your preferences and switch to the Tab prefs and see what you see.

OmniWeb was available for intel some time ago.

There have been Intel-only builds of the Mozilla products, including Firefox, here for about a month or more:

Until you can open a link ina new tab with command-click or similar, aI cant use Camino. I have no idea why they haven't implemented that yet.

#5, because its faster and more stable. It also takes advantage of the native UI hooks in OS X. I was using Camino (when it was Chimera) and just recently switched back and couldn't be happier. I replaced all the functionality that I had before in extensions except the Web Developer extension but I'll take stability and speed any day.

"Why run camino over firefox?"

I keep going back and forth between the two. I'm a web developer, and the extensions available in Firefox keep pulling me in. But it's so...krusty on the Mac. Camino is very nicely integrated with OS X, while Firefox definitely feels like a fish out of water.

But then I need some special extension, and it's back to Firefox. Drat.
