As I said, I used Lynx just last week.  Lynx works under DOS and many 
other things.  I loaded it onto my System 7 Macintosh a long time 
ago, though the Mac version has some troubles.  It works on every 
UNIX system and is MUCH MUCH MUCH more lightweight than a big bloated 
Netscape.

Lynx comes up in about 5 secs; Netscape takes about 20.  Lynx also 
runs on everything and works over an ssh or telnet session; Netscape 
doesn't.

Lynx-friendly pages also load MUCH faster usually.

Ask that to a blind man who needs a Lynx-friendly page for his 
speaking web browser....
