Pardon me for being the contrarian, but why does a server need a

profitably put to use powering the application?

What I do is install Gnome, "just in case" I need it for some reason (ie: opening many terminal windows at a higher res that I can alt+tab between). Then once the install is done I delete the '/etc/rc2.d/S??gdm' file, then '/etc/init.d/gdm stop'. Problem solved. :)

This gives me the *option* of using a GUI without it wasting any resources besides some disk space.
