If Tiger is not an option, then you're pretty limited as far as browser choice concerned: the built-in Safari, Firefox 2.0.x, Camino 1.6, Opera 9, Opera 10.0 maybe. And that is it. Those are pretty old, full of bugs by todays standards. Everything newer requires at least Tiger or even Leopard (Chrome, Firefox 4+).
