Hi Benjamin,

Are you going to ever post a diy audio question?

  • Maxthon (Trident [IE] rendering core)
  • Konqueror (KHTML rendering core - a fork of this project, Webkit, powers Chrome and Safari)
  • IceWeasel/IceCat/SwiftWeasel (Copyright free firefox distribution, Gecko rendering core)
  • SeaMonkey (the descendent of Netscape. Continues to be developed despite having forked into Firefox years ago)
  • Lynx (still useful text-mode browser)
  • Camino (Gecko rendering core)
  • K-meleon (Gecko rendering core)
  • iCab (reasonably modern browser for MacOS Classic)
  • Epiphany (Gnome web browser)
  • Dillo (lightweight browser designed for minimal storage applications)

There are other, more obscure browsers around, but those are the "alternative" browsers which have some significance.

Oh, and incidentally, there truly are 10 types of people - those who understand binary, those who don't, and those who think they do.

(A hint: you have two states - understanding binary (true) and not understanding binary (false). How many binary bits does it take to represent that information?)

iCab is also a really good OS X browser as well as the only OS 9 browser that works half-decently.

Also my primary browser.

The description of Camino that i have heard is "a Mac-only version of FireFox with a more-Mac-like UI". In that respect it needs work. (my third-string browser)

Some more:
OmniWeb
BumperCar (for Kids)
ELinks
Flock
KidsBrowser (for Kids)
Lynxlet
Mozilla (same code base as FireFox & Camino)
WaMCom (ditto)
Shiira (also based on WebKit)
Sunrise (WebKit)
WannaBe (OS 9)

I still use Firebird (preceeds Firefox) on sites that it can handle, because it is so much faster.
Certain recent uses of CSS upset it though.

For desktop or for smartphones? What operating system do you have in mind?
Those I use on my desktop are Firefox (usually) or Konqueror and lynx if X died by himself or I killed it.

SRWare Iron is a free / open source version of Google Chrome but without the spyware. i.e. all the good with none of the bad.
