w3m is a textual browser with inline image support (in xterms) :)

w3m dates to 2001 (based on the ChangeLog file in the w3m 0.5.1 source distribution). This is, I think, well after "once upon a time." That said, I do quite like w3m. I generally prefer it to lynx when browsing from the machine at home while at the office. links works quite well, too. And it does have a very lightweight graphical mode if that's your thing.
