Who'd have thought thirty years ago we'd all be sittin' here alt-tabin' between xterms with a windowmanager of our choice! In them days we was glad to have little rectangular pieces of paper (wet paper!) and would move them on our desk (at least those lucky bastards who had a desk! a broken desk that is) and point a pencil (with no grafit) into to the one we wanted to write in. And you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won't believe you.
