I agree. I quit using lynx well over 5 years ago, but I do use some hacked up version of links very regularly.

Lynx does not render many pages correctly and does not support CSS/javascript (some versions of links do, and even support mouse input inside a terminal!).

It is a beautiful thing to be able to ssh into a server, and download updates, patches, new versions, etc. quickly and easily. Also, rendering performance and the fact that the server has at least a T3 makes browsing the web unbelievably and refreshingly fast. Furthermore, because of the rendering performance, it makes my 200MHz laptop seem brand new.
