It sounds like a bit of overkill to install a huge environment like KDE,
just for browsing. You could also try not installing any Desktop
Environment at all, and only install Mozilla. Then you can open Mozilla
and one terminal-window, use Mozilla to read Howto's and use the terminal
window to experiment with whatever the how-to is about.

Cheers!
