I do, I've been at the mercy of deadlock bugs in nearly every version.  If it wasn't for the fact that I have to run an old, slightly unstable version of Safari on this 10.2 machine then I wouldn't touch it on the Mac.

Last 2 bugs...

1.5.0.1:  Bug where drop down lists would cause lock-ups which would have to be force quit.  RSS bookmarks would always cause this if you tried viewing them more than once.  But worst of all was typing in an address or filling in a form could trigger this at any time.

1.5.0.2:  Return of the input lockout bug.  Once it occurs, all keyboard input is ignored, you can't type into forms, or use shortcut keys.  Only a quit (or in some cases force quit) will fix the problem.
