The heart of the web is the GUI browser.  Linux cannot change that.

Ideally, the web is identical for Windows and Linux users.

There are, of course, second order differences.  Screen readers, for 
example.  I think that you've said screen readers are better on Windows.

lynx, links, elinks all try to use a TUI for the web but are pretty 
hit-or-miss.

I don't know when you are using MS-DOS, but I would be surprised if you 
could browse well from MS-DOS.
