Lynx

Fact: GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces) are bad for geeks. The full-on GUIs of web browsers like Mozilla Firefox can be dangerous at times, + big on the memory req.s. So that's why there's lynx for linux. It's a very simple web browser that runs in - guess what? - the terminal. So now you can browse the web with 128k of RAM. Great!

What - a link to download lynx? If your in Ubuntu and connected to the internet, the easiest way of getting it is by typing this in you bash terminal:
sudo apt-get install lynx
And I'm sure lots of other Linux distros have it in their repositries. You use Linux then, do you? (I thought you used Windoze)

Well I have to get by with using my familys windows (why do you say windoze?)

Colonel Panic said...

I say windoze (or window$ for that matter) because windoze is dozy (as in RLY SLOW). I also say M$ Windoze cos its both RLY SLOW and RLY EXPENSIVE.

BTW: what version of windoze do you use?

a) 1.0
b) 3.x
c) 95
d) 98
e) NT
f) 2000
g) XP
h) Vista
