  Arachne is the best browser there is for DOS.  
  Arachne is a barely-functional, resource-hungry browser 
under Linux, so there would have to be big changes before 
you'd ever see Linux users switching from Netscape, Mozilla, 
Opera, or the K-thingy to Arachne.

  I do know about the "happy with what I'm using, so why 
'upgrade' sentiment" though.  I'm using a quite ancient 
version of Linux.  It does what I need it to, so why upgrade 
for the sake of upgrading?  (I'm sure nobody else shares 
THAT sentiment!  ;-)
