Here's where to get Mosaic, from the Mosaic Frequently Asked Questions list:

    NCSA Mosaic for the X Window System is available at ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu in
    /Mosaic.  Both source code and binaries (for Sun, SGI, IBM RS/6000, DEC
    Alpha OSF/1, DEC Ultrix, and HP-UX) are available. For more information,
    see the summary of availability and features of NCSA-supplied Mosaic 2.0
    binaries

    (You don't need to have Motif installed on your system to run NCSA
    Mosaic, if you pick up a precompiled binary. You do need Motif 1.1 to
    compile NCSA Mosaic, though.)
    
Netscape 0.94 beta is available for Anonymous FTP from the following sites:

     ftp://ftp.mcom.com/netscape/

      ftp://ftp.adelaide.edu.au/pub/WWW/Netscape 

There don't seem to be any Lynx binaries for HP-UX.

OK, I've mailed a printed copy to:
