I've tried most of the OS X browsers available, but just ended up coming back to the default MSIE. Distressing. Netscape7 / Mozilla seems too slow and bloated, Opera for OS X isn't at all pretty and it seems to be bottom of their list of preferred platforms, Omniweb, well, it's sort of half finished standard-wise as well as being payware.

But chimera looked very promising last night (screenshot large, small). It was extremely quick - quicker than IE I thought; it uses the mozilla rendering engine so we have cross-platform uniformity (e.g. the new OS X AOL client), yet debloats by dumping the enormous feature set of Netscape; and the interface is extremely clean and simple, with tabs if you want them.
