I've reviewed browsers in general at:
http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Linux/FAQs/browsers.html
For a lighter old system, I'd recommend:
- w3m, lynx, or links, all text-mode.
- BrowseX: http://browsex.com/Features.html
A Tcl/Tk based graphical browser with support for frames, SSL,
Java/Javascript (and Tcl script :-), etc.
Not packaged for Debian, but it's just a standalone binary.
- Dillo. Not pretty. But fast and light.
For non-free:
- Older versions of Netscape. Up through about 4.04, though the 3.x
versions are lighter and IMVAO more stable. There are security
issues.
- Opera.
