Nice reminder. That really takes me back. I stumbled upon OW when 10.0 was out, too, and I wanted a browser that really gave me that OS X experience (IE 5 certainly didn't). The custom rendering engine was awesome, what with it's multithreadedness. When I upgraded to a screamin' Power Mac G4 dual 867 MHz, having that was great.
I'm still a faithful OW user to this day, and have even managed to convert some of my friends. I bought a few licenses way back when (4.something and 5.0), and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. It was also a great intro to the wonderful world of Omni, and lead me to buy OmniPlan and get my lab to buy OmniGraffle.
Keep up the good work. As long as you're developing, I'll be using.
