I say "was" because the last release was several months ago, and had a fair number of bugs. Development seems to have stopped. There's a spiritual successor to Shiira: the Demeter browser. However, it seems to be one man's part-time project, and I can't even get the thing to run. Shiira was a fantastic browser.

Sorry you don't like it--we've had plenty of other people who use it pretty contentedly, though. -jon- We never intended CrossOver Chromium to be a finished product–it was a proof-of-concept to demonstrate how quickly one can move a piece of Windows software over to the Mac world.

I have a laptop that runs Linux, An iMac running Leopard, and another laptop running Vista. Leopard is by far my favorite OS, but I find myself using the laptop with Vista more and more, because I just LOVE chrome so much. It really is the fastest and coolest browser out there right now. A close second would be <a href="http://seamonkey-project.org" rel="nofollow">seamonkey</a>, which is an open-source browser built on Mozilla technology. It's become the only browser I use on my Mac. You can change the skin to give it a different appearance, it never crashes, and it seems to run a lot faster than firefox or safari on my Mac. You can check out <a href="http://indyawesome.com/category/reviews" rel="nofollow">my reviews at my blog.</a> I’m currently running three different machines with three different OS’s and testing lots of different browsers.
