The browser panorama is becoming dim outisde x86/amd64... And in any case, 512MB is not enough for anything. You need 1GB at least, seriously.

I find that seamonkey consumes less RAM - especially if you use it as your email client instead of Firefox+Thunderbird. I like the old-style interface also better.

I sometimes use Midori, but it is quite slow, even if its startup RAM requirements are lower (but increase later).
