But, Lynx does not support tables (Ok, it support tables but does not 
show it properly). There is yet another text based browser Links (not Lynx :-) )
It supports tables and frames (as w3m does), but have a little different interface
so text browser of my choice is w3m-ssl, but Netscape is not too bad too :-)
Mozilla is TOO SLOOOW :-(((( And Galeon requires GNOME, which sucks :-)
