Just middleclick or CTRL-click the link, and it should open in a new tab in a decent browser. And the previous page is just a backspace (or ALT+left or click on the back button) away.

Personally, I hate, hate, hate it when a website opens links in a new window/tab. And the general consensus among web developers (such as myself) seems to be that it's up to the user (such as you) to open links in a new tab if you like it that way.

If you're using Firefox with Greasemonkey ("a Firefox extension that allows you to customize the way webpages look and function") (or similar) I could whip up an user script that opens links in a new window by default.
