I'm not sure how you arrive at Safari "killing" Camino. It was frankly always marginal. You had Mozilla, Firefox, and IE all available on OSX contemporaneously.

well there's Dave Hyatt, co-creator of Camino, who left to work on Safari. That didn't help.

I mean Hyatt is also co-creator of Firefox, and Firefox survived. (IIRC he also did the tabbing implementations for both Camino and Firefox!)

None of the others were Mac browsers - they all felt cross-platform.

Camino felt like a Mac app - and was the only real choice for that until Safari came along.
