Well, what about this app? https://minecraft.net/download > "open a website"? That is what browser's are for. IIRC, Design-suite spin of Fedora 17 has a built-in launcher that opens Inkscape tutorial web page.

Really? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_Manager "Device Manager was introduced with Windows 95 and later added to Windows 2000."
