Re: how good is lynx for internet surffing?

I understand.
Lynx should suit you nicely, especially since if properly set up you can save sites as documents etc.
As for reading your e-mails may I suggest:
www.mail2web.com

Granted I have neither a yahoo nor a gmail account. I do know that you can in theory use Lynx or links to read in general over there. the site above however works very well with pop 3 addresses, and while I think Yahoo is no longer, gmail should be?
Others will correct me if I am mistaken.
Happy surfing!
Karen

 Hi there,
 Granted I am still creating my Linux stand alone box, so have only used
 Lynx, via a shell and otherwise, of the two programs you mentioned in your
 question?
 My opinion is that it depends on your goals.
 I find Linux perfectly fine for more than 90% of my needs, with the other
 5% being managed by links and e-links, and the last 5%  split in half
 between what I will be better able to manage with a stand alone Linux
 setup, and between what cannot be done by a screen reading setup at all.
 This is me though.
 What specific internet goals do you have?
 Karen
my most important need is to read my emails.  I have my account mostly
on gmail and yahoo.
I read a lot of documentation on line and even store the same.
I will visit a lot of web sites with little or no graphics.
