\LaTeX, sendfax (our machine at work is sending 400 faxes tonight, thanks
awk :-) ), gcc, emacs to enter my workinghoursheet-data, awk+latex make
a pretty timetable with calculated hours+cash out of it..., cnews/nn
and elm to communicate with the world...

I use X as often as I can get it, but for reading news/mail I prefer to
sit in my own room at my terminal and not in my `cellar` where the unix
machine runns day`n`night :-)
