  Chromium:
  -- : Not Qt based
  
  Qupzilla:
  +++ :Qt based, no KDE dependencies
  --: not as widely used as Firefox or Chromium so odd page may not render correctly.
  
  Otter Browser:
  +++ :Qt Browser, Opera based, support.
  --- :In Beta, crashes from time to time, doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet.
  
  === Discussion ===

  [ianorlin] I would like to add qupzilla to the discussion as is Qt based without KDE dependencies.
  [israeldahl] +1 qupzilla.  It works very well, and is VERY lightweight, but has occasional problems.
  [DoctorJellyface] My vote goes to Otter Browser. It's Qt, lightweight, and it's based on Opera 12, so it's awesome. Also the support is very quick, but it's still in Beta.
