I love Linux and one thing I love about it is that you can set it up just right for yourself to make yourself super productive and make working in Linux very pleasant.
What are your favorite tools to setup and use?
EDIT: I was writing out a list of my own tools and that ended up turning into a blog post about my favorite linux tools. :)
