OK. Then show me a Linux distribution developed in Africa or India.

How about Brazil? Linux Brazil is a southern hemisphere distro, and reportedly growing in popularity by leaps and bounds. Note that there are few Portugese-speaking developers on the Debian team--maybe because that's because they're working on a Portugese distro!

You might also look at this SlashDot article, declaring that Linux will be proclaimed the "official OS" of the People's Republic of China. For more third-world Linux you can view sites from Indonesia, Malaysia, and Zaire. And, while I'm at it, you might view this article from SlashDot describing the Mexican Federal District's adoption of Linux. Mexico City, of course, is not south of the Equator--but most people still lump Mexico into the Third World.

This only lists a small portion of browsers that are capable of running in linux, there was an article not long ago with quick reviews on 21 Linux Web Browsers?, the article can be found here.

I have a personal preference to any browser that is not capable of javascript, although, it does have it's uses, as we have seen this week, with the CERT release, there are some things it can do that we may not like...

I personally use some of these browsers after Netscape has Crashed (TM) for the 10th time in as many minutes, it reminds me too much of another OS I do my best to get away from :)
