I use Mozilla 1.0.2 (Yes. That old. 1.0.7/1.0.9 spent more time on their faces than upright.) on:
PB1400c/G3/400MHz/64MB OS8.6, with 5MB RAM Disk as cache
5500/G3/400MHz/128MB OS9.1, with 5MB RAM Disk as cache
9600/G3/500MHz/512MB OS9.2.2, with 5MB RAM Disk as cache
Beige G3/400MHz/768MB OS9.2.2, with 5MB RAM Disk as cache,
just as examples. As alk mentions, none of those processors was harmed during the making of this post by having 1MB of L2 cache, either.
Mozilla is perfectly adequate for downloads, Web searching and forum participation, especially if you double its RAM allocation in Get Info. Of course it bogs down with many sites and graphics/sound-heavy renders. Amazing, that, since it wasn't written to cope with such stuff. It has a perfectly adequate email client inbuilt. As 'legacy' browsers go it has no reason to hang its head. I've used my PB1400 on the road and with dial-up instead of ADSL to bid and win on eBay. It needs the addition of 5sec reaction time to win, but win it can.
