Bash. :)  Seriously, I usually work in console mode most of the time, and
prefer it to X or other GUI's.  When I'm in X, I usually use Gnome for a
desktop manager, and the default Sawfish window manager, though I'm not
quite happy with Sawfish.  I used to use icewm when I had a 486 because of
the low memory requirements.  I've tried out tons of different window
managers, but only for brief periods of time.  I've usually either used
fvwm or icewm most of the time.  Mostly, of course, I'm in console, using
bash....
