Just piggybacking on the advice you've already gotten...
As you've discovered, Safari doesn't keep bookmarks in a nice (and 
portable) html format. The Safari Bookmark Exporter 
(http://homepage.mac.com/simx/ ) that Larry referred you to  has worked 
well for me, though I was importing to Firefox 0.9 before the most 
recent SBE upgrade (I simply made it a two part process, where I had 
SBE create the html file, then launced Firefox and had it import it). 
The upgrade probably has that all worked out so it's automatic.

I do like Firefox. It's very quick, and has a Google window like 
Safari, which has become indispensable to me. As Eva mentioned, give it 
a try. It's also Mozilla based. Would someone explain the difference 
between Camino and Firefox? Or the history between the two?

IE isn't being supported, so I'm wary of using it (though I dearly love 
its Scrapbook feature, and lauch it just to warehouse pages). More 
important for me, IE has no popup blocker, unlike either Firefox or 
Safari.
