Hi again,

Sarah, in considering this question, one must also look at the
computer user.  Unfortunately, one size does not fit all.  David says
that the best thing is to stay with a graphical browser.  This may be
true for him.  He is a competent windows user.  He is an expert.  Not
all people are experts in using Windows.  There are tricks and tips
that must be learned before one is an expert in anything, and judging
what other nonexperts can and can not do may be difficult for
experts.

Another thing occured to me as I was rereading my first reply.  There
are two distinct purposes for web sites.  The original one was to
present text in a non-linear format that could be expanded and
cross-referenced and so on.  The other use of the web is fast become
to do anything else one would do on the Internet.  You can read your
mail, shop, pay bills, listen to radio, play games and so on.  It is
for this purpose of web use that a graphical browser is most
effective, especially in the area of multi-media.

On the other hand, if you're examining text, then you want a text
browser!

What can I say, there *is* no right answer here, if you think
seriously about both what is being done on the web and its users.

Ann P.
