A decent text browser???
There're times when I REALLY would like to be able to browse only using text, yet everything I've tried makes an utter mess of most sites (this one being a prime example). Opera has been the best thus far. I've seen Elinks but as I don't use unix/linux/OS X on the desktop that's out... wish they had a win32 version! Any recommendations?

I so miss Lynx on OS X...I have to install it on every system I use.
There are ports for every OS though, so you should be find with Win32. If not, and you have access to a linux or unix or os x shell, via putty or ssh, then just install it there.
