interesting, I guess that's another way of looking at it. Bear in mind 
though that the cpu really is low powered. On top of that, it's a netbook so
keeping power consumption low is important 

In the meantime I've found that links2 might do what I want as it supports
text and graphics in svga/framebuffer.

thanks for the suggestion
