I prefer just command line, I see absolutely no point in even install X11
if all I am running is pop3, Postfix, apache, mysql, BIND.
These are all server app's, I script in console, I read e-mail in console,
and when I am on the road i use ICQ/IRC in console.

But I am also not the biggest GUI fan when doing work, I run fluxbox with
keybinding's for everything imaginable so I pretty much don't even use the
mouse in X.
