I'm impressed; the list is something like four time as long as I would have guessed. Although I don't know if it's fair to count as an available web browser something most recently updated in 1995.

Cyberdog was the cutest little web browser/FTP program/mail client/etcetera ever. It's to be mourned. When you moved the cursor over a link it turned into a little paw.

I actually remember finding this page a few years ago, when I was looking for any trace that Netmanage Chameleon even existed when I noticed they (back then) had a building across the street in Cupertino and remembered their old browser product. The one interesting thing about that one at the time was they had written a wrapper library to expose a WinSock API on top of Open Transport, I think with the aim of licensing for people doing ports.

At some point in time, I've used a whole bunch of those historic ones at length :o

NCSA Mosiac, Chameleon Surfer, eWorld browser, CyberDog (ah, OpenDoc), IE (yeah, it actually was the best browser on the Mac for a while in the '90s), Netscape ('natch), Chimera/Camino, Opera, and iCab (tiny browser!). Today, Safari.

That is a cute lil extra!
Certainly cursors change a lot when moved over different areas, but how many have a paw!?
One of the last old-school programs I still run is the Pro version of Eudora 2.0 ... which has a clean, fast, text-only interface, and thus keeps all buggaboo attachments in a safe folder. I view nearly all of my email on the webmail app nowadays, but Eudora is the final archive step.

And as much as I help out on system 9 as long as I could, the web experience is pretty bleak and klunky that way now.. so I haven't used it a lot for years.

Things I miss the most?
- the clean, fast, sleek functionality of the iCab browser
- oh, and PhotoShop loading in less than 3 seconds :D
