I've been using Windows as a network administrator for just over 6 years now. I've used NT4 servers, 2000 servers, and Windows 2003, and there has been a tremendous improvement with each version. There are still some things that drive me nuts in my job, though, and this is a chronicle of the top five.

I'm not sure exactly how GNOME and KDE are required for these services you claim - Apache works fine without a GUI on the server, for example. Haven't tried with CUPS, but I'd bet it does.
I can confirm this for Debian Stable/Woody. Cups installs quite happily without any gui. It does require some components common with X, such as the font renders, but there's no mention of anything like xserver, xclients, or xbase.
Heck, Debian even lets you install parts of, or full X enviroments (ranging from xclock to GNOME/KDE) and login managers without installing an xserver...
