You could even start images with a VNC server, and control the machine from your browser. One less visual tool.

Oh, I should clarify, I don't use it as a server or anything like that. I have VirtualBox and a Windows XP image for any University work that requires Windows software. Right now that's, reluctantly, Microsoft Visual Studio.

And I wonder if KeePassX has a CLI. Its GUI current form is clunky.
