You can also pretty much kiss any development of earlier Safari versions
goodbye, unless Apple finds a security hole that needs work; Apple want
you
to buy newer versions of the OS that have more functionality.

Your B&W G3 has built-in FireWire, so it will sup****t OS 10.4, which
includes a version of Safari that sup****ts right clicks. You don't say how
much RAM you have, but up to 1GB is sup****ted, which should be OK for
10.4.
