But what will you *do* with it? Mutt will frustrate you to no end, and the intarweb has become too graphics-oriented to make lynx/elinks widely useful.
Some of us run servers :-)

I've been running headless Debian servers for years, never used anything but a command line to manage them.

I guess I could run X-Windows remotely, but never really saw a need to - ssh to a command prompt is just fine.

Now, if I used Debian for my desktop environment, that might be a different story, but I got sucked into Macs a long time ago.
