Camino, Firefox on Mac OS X

Josh Aas: Camino, Firefox on Mac OS X, and My MF Employment: >"I'll also be working on making pages load faster, and Mac OS X rendering in general. This most likely includes making the gecko rendering engine use the Quartz API intead of Quickdraw. This will bring a lot of benefits, including making use of your graphics card to do a lot of the work that your CPU is doing right now because we use Quickdraw."

This is great news! Both Camino and Firefox are great browsers, and they're going to be getting better. Josh will also be helping to make Firefox look even more like a "Mac" app, with native widgets, etc.
