Links -- text-based browser with images

This is apparently a very fast browser with a lot of the, sometimes unecessary stuff missing. Get it here.
As I'm not ruinning either Gentoo or Arch (the only two OSes where he gives examples), I tried it in Ubuntu with

sudo apt-get install links

Something installed and typing "links" gives me a sort of browser I can use in a terminal.
This will take some getting used to, but maybe it's worth it if it's really as fast as this guy says it is.

Its the links -g version that is graphical. links on its own is a text based browser for use when you don't have a GUI up.
