Both are free in every sense of the word. Galeon is based on Mozilla, but
aims to be lighter and faster. No mail-reading, newsgroups, etc, just web
browsing. Works fine with as many websites as Mozilla, IMO.

The only downside to Galeon is that it requires both Mozilla and the Gnome
libraries to be installed, though you don't actually need to be running
Gnome to use it. Modern you can exercise freedom of choice by giving it a
try:

Galeon uses Mozilla's rendering engine, so it should be able to display
anything Mozilla can.
