Apt-get goodies
Most, if not all of these will require root access, so put sudo before apt-get and enter your password when promted.
apt-get install axel (command line download manager)
apt-get install nmap (network tool – powerful, but don’t have a clue how to use it yet – answers on a postcard)

apt-get install kubuntu-kde4-desktop (as above but with KDE4)
