To be picky, you missed some ;) http://www.mozilla.org/ports/
Like Firefox for BeOS http://www.bebits.com/app/3143
I forgot, Opera is/was for BeOS also, old 3.62 version.

BeOS, BTW...
 -curiously- anybody here have experience from Beos or the new brands of it?

I read about BeOS some years back, ant it seemed real cool then.
They had marketing difficulties (i will not elaborate), but i now found through Google that BeOS is being reenginneered and boult further upon both by commercial corporation (http://www.yellowtab.com/) and several free and open verisons http://www.beunited.org/.
Lots of pretty modern apps are available, and I also found a note that GTK+ is ported in alph astage, so more apps will probably be available.  There are books, development tools...

Some history
