   No, we all use Lynx here for web work.    
      
   Once you've used Lynx, any browser with a window and   
   graphics, is a step up. I don't think people appreciate   
   browsers that work (render close to 100% of pages and   
   not 50% of them). "Decorations" are pretty far down the list.   
      
   If I got upset about every little thing... why, I'd be using Fedora.   
      
   If I wanted to drive people away from Linux, I'd show them Fedora first.   
   Much of Linux is unfinished, like the dilapidated buildings in any   
   downtown. Whereas Fedora is buttery smooth -- and when something   
   isn't buttery smooth there (a project still in development),   
   the effect of that is really jarring. Fedora teaches you what happens   
   when you get carried away with your fine self. There is too much butter   
   and not enough common sense.   
      
   A better butter balance is Zorin.
