I used to have only lynx at my disposal, and I totally agree! I've put
<alt> descriptions in my few images and tested out my pages to make sure
I'm not turning away someone who just has lynx. And I won't use frames for
the same reason. I did volunteer work with a freenet that uses the Chebucto
suite, and many of our users are seniors and people with low incomes. They
shouldn't be denied information any more than the rest of us, based on what
browser they are using.
