^not necessarily true!
Having a variety of _good_ browsers is good. Camino is essentially Firefox,
but has features to make it more "Mac-friendly". Opera and other browsers have
also earned respect.
The problem with Safari is that it fails to meet accepted standards with regard
to rendering of HTML, support for the HTTP protocol, etc.
Fortunately for Safari users, they have been shielded from most of these
shortcomings; because they represent, in general, an affluent and demanding
market, so web developers have spent hours of time implementing work-arounds so
that their clients' site will function properly with Safari. Exactly the same
situation as with IE.
