Used to be that web browsing on Linux was a poor second cousin to "mainstream" platforms. No longer. Linux is the preferred platform with excellent native browsers such as Galeon and Mozilla, as well as text and lightweight graphical alternatives.
Browsing tips:
To save a webpage completely (with inline images and stylesheets etc.) use either Mozilla (, Galeon?) or wget (wget -E -H -k -K -p http://yourpage.html) or use Konquerors WAR tool (Tools, Archive web page).
Graphical browsers
Galeon - Let's just get this straight. It kicks royal ass. Then it starts to get seriously impressive.
