I need it so that
    1)  I can have a clock and 'xosview' and irssi and gabber all
            visible on the same screen, while I do real work in
            another xterm
    2)  I can have many xterms running at once
    3)  I can view images every now and then

However, you're right that the console also works just fine for most
stuff (just like having one massive xterm filling the whole screen
:-)).

I once found this in someone's .sig and have included it in my
collection :
    A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in.

-D

PS.  My .sig is randomly chosen by a python script.  I didn't pick
     this one this time.
