Spoken like a true UNIX dinosaur: "if I have Ion and some xterms on my 30"
display, then I'm good." I used to do that. There's at least one KDE PIM
developer who has a single fullscreen konsole with green on black (also my
favorite colour scheme, comes from growing up with an Apple ][e) who runs
screen in it for tabbing.
As for what works, yes, konsole runs. I think I tried kate as well. Konqueror
will display web pages. KWin will manage windows. KTip (tip of the day) works
quite well, and the plasma wall clock on the desktop background ticks and
tocks. For jurassic work, it's good to go. If you want an exhaustive list I'd
have to go back and compile it on dillon again (I removed it because I wanted
to get back down to cleaning up the dependencies).
Bear in mind that PIM -- KMail, KOrganizer -- is in no state to be used in
production, and will be released with KDE 4.1.

PS. Looking forward to meeting the faces behind the email addresses next week.
See you in SFO.
