Konqueror
 

I've heard the name a lot before, what is it?

I'm using it right now. It's a web browser. Comes default with SuSE Linux.

Fire it up and see. It's also a filemanager, and ftp client, an image editor... It's pretty much the only thing I've found for quite sometime that does ALOT of things, and does them all fairly well (besides Mplayer, but that's a different story..).

Cool

sorta like explorer is to windows as Konqueror is for linux

Nah, explorer is a virus to win, konqueror is a great tool for linux ;)

Cool

even better put;

lol
