Not sure if i prefer straight command-line usage vs. a GUI on a tool like that, that i have never used before, but i am certain that it is intuitive. SuperKaramba? Yeah, i have that thing installed, but i have never used it. i don't know if i want a lot of crap "running" around on my desktop -- even though it (my desktop) is completely blank; i don't even have the Trash Bin out. The only thing that i would probably want to do with it is to read RSS feeds or some such, but i use AKregator to do that. Hmph! At any rate, great show.
