I get spoiled with the HB. Then I try to read something on line and prancing pony images slow everything down. Funk fonts. Ads. When I try to rig the browser to show nothing it shows some red xs but everything is just as slow.
I want an option to display text as text and everything else as nothing.

There's usually a way to turn off pictures in the browser and stuff like No Script script blocking program. |

I'm not that interested in heavy swf file, or those links to google, googleapis, googlesyndication, twitter, facebook etc... |

Is this true? Choosing not to render the stuff does
not get a time savings? |

I find even the Halfbakery to sometimes be too graphics-heavy, so I use the 'low-res' version at http://www.halfbakery.com/lr/ (see link). Every website should have a "/lr" version. |

This is still too high-tech. Pages on the Halfbakery and other
websites should be indexed in a catalog from which you can order
copies-- text only, on newsprint --delivered to your home. |

Nothing to do with high or low tech [swim], it's about unsolicited junk mail / spam software adverts & plugins using up your PC's memory & processor when you'd prefer they don't. |

If you can't access it via an ASR-33 teletype, it's too sophisticated... |

//so I use the 'low-res' version |

Can't tell the difference.... |
