I apologize twice, first for steering the conversation into competition between different browsers, second for losing it because Safari has an easily reproducible bug rendering math on Math Overflow.

This is not a good place for a browswer war, but I like Firefox for its plugins. More relevant to this forum is its MathML support, of course.

This is entirely tongue-in-cheek comment, but I've never been happy with Firefox on Mac (any version). I gladly switched to Safari when a pre-beta version of Safari 4 appeared and didn't turn back.

Three times now I have had Firefox (on the Mac) crash while I was typing an answer. Are other people seeing this too? I suppose it is likely to be related to the javascript that renders the preview. Fortunately, upon restart most of my typed-in answer is still there. So it's annoying, but not totally disastrous.
