Who said anything about Microsoft Windows? All I know is that Links runs smoothly on my 32MB (linux) laptop, while Firefox takes about 5 minutes to start up, what with all the swapping. That's running under X-Windows. You don't even need the bloat of X-Windows to run 'links -g' (You can use SVGAlib). I'm probably an exception though, since I use ratpoison as my window manager when I do run X. But still, it shows that you can have a perfectly acceptable web experience using a very lean setup.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
