| | The Seattle Times: Business & Technology: Worthy rivals take on quirky Safari browser (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07) |
 | | In November 2002, I rounded up several browsers that had their strong points as alternatives to IE; a couple of months later, Apple's introduction of its free Safari browser pounded the nails into IE's coffin, and, I would have guessed, pushed competing browsers into the dustbin of history. |
 | | Four other browsers are worth contemplating, especially as three make their way from beta to release in the next few weeks to months: Camino 0.8b, Mozilla 1.7RC2 (release candidate), OmniWeb 5 (beta 6.1) and Opera 7.5 (release version). |
 | | Safari set the bar so high that these other browsers shave seconds not tens of seconds off a task. |
