I use Ubuntu. I install the server edition so I get a text console. If
you install the Workstation, then you get a gui console. It might be no
big deal but that's what I prefer. The server edition doesn't come with
X proper, so I run `sudo apt-get install xclock` and it pulls in all of
X.
If you're really counting megabits then learn ye vnc
(vncserver/vncviewer).
I use/support 6000 boxes. (Is it really a lan when you use all of 10/8
?) Most of the time I use ssh, but when I need to run our store's app, I
use vnc, which gives me a remote desktop that is fast.
X is a pig is a pig is a pig. Wait, let me say that again. X-is-a-pig-
is-a-p
uh! autowrap, I'll need to redraw. But first I have to unload my buffer.
ig-is-a-pig.
X-is-a-pig-(don't move your mouse!)is-pig-is-a-pig.
