Me too, except I have about 5 cents...

mgdiff:  Probably the only one in my list no one here has heard of.  I loved SGI's gdiff program to visually show diffs between two files.  I think Sam said he was a visual learner, I must be too because I hate command line diff.  This version isn't as cool as SGI's.  On SGI's if you were diffing two files and editing one of them you could press Control-R to have gdiff reload.

nEdit: my favorite text editor.

xvnc: Probably already been mentioned, but a very easy way to share KDE/Gnome/Whatever desktop over the net.

samba: hard to setup IMO, but worth it.

crossover office/plugin: For running dreaded MS apps on Linux.

webCdWriter: Didn't actually use it, but looked like a good app for sharing a CD-RW drive.  I hate XCDRoast.

ogle: DVD playback

videolan: tons of cool video streaming/playback features.  (videolan.org)

XMLTV: Perl mod to get TV listings.

lirc: Get your remote control to control your Linux programs!

gqlplus: A drop-in wrapper to Oracle's $hitty sqlplus that supports (GASP) command histroy and editting.
