It's difficult to argue with this. Safari+SafariStand is such a stellar combination that I can live with the absence of a few beloved OW features. And, for some of the power features, things like Scribefire, Twitter and other plugins that are offered with Firefox 3 make the Safari-FF dichotomy a more rational one.
It will be so horrible if OW were to perish, but the Omnigroup cannot be faulted for making an important business decision.
Well, when I upgrade to an intel Mac, maybe some of the problems I've been experiencing with OW will go away.
Until then...
