(1) "even *running* firefox on an i386 netbook with 1Gb of memory is
unbearable."

(2) "PS: No i can't do anything about the crashes or the OOMs ! Send your
reports directly upstream !"

The Browser is a program I need that needs by far much more resources
than any other program I need.

w3m is a phantastic tool! When it gets unbearable, I copy the location
from firefox and feed w3m with it.

I will try later surf.

iridium does not convince me till now. It seems to be a new browser
(different from chrome) as any linux distribution is a new operating
system. It seems to be slower than firefox, the window for everything
(url, search, etc) is a risk.
