    Xterm. Why? Because it's there regardless of what desktop I use.

    Well I'm considering moving over to openbox soon (basically when I get time to sit at my PC). Once I do I think I'll go for a more 'lightweight' term. Perhaps mrxvt (I love tabs).

    I'm thinking openbox + mrxvt + adesklets + perlpanel

    My machine is CLI only pretty much.

    If I feel that I really need to boot into X11 then I just use the system default which is more than likely xterm, it's good to know all of the system default apps like xterm and Vi just in case you can't get that fancy terminal or text editor because your network is down or something.
