You would not believe how shitty boxes people in some offices are using. I've got a netbook that barely runs Firefox under Linux.

its surprising how many options linux has to do something. Not being closed source means everybody who has an unorthodox application uses linux to run their shit.

Firefox too slow to browse the web? get a halfway solution with lynx or w3m to browse from the terminal, switching over to firefox only for those things that wont work with TUIs.
