Yes + No.
Yes, NetBSD's main page should remain Lynx friendly.
No, that doesn't mean we should sacrifice some of the prettier html
options available to us.
Either have the web server detect the client, and for well known graphical
ones with images loading, send them the pretty one, and the plainer one
for others. (content is the same on both)
Or resort to the classic (lynx/text version here) link.
