I like to have dvcs and a terminal multiplexer in the VTE. I do email over ssh and pdfs in mupdf which is way lighter than the browser. I also mess with gEDA some. But yeah, gnome etc is overkill if `sudo vim etc/blah` doesn't scare you and you only speak english. My gf does freak out editing networks and such and also needs her thai IME to just work so she runs gnome.
