Absolutely true.
For a GUI, ktorrent scratches my itch. Persists indefinitely -- across
power failures, reboots, etc.; provides many stats.
From rpmforge: ktorrent-2.2.1-1.el5.rf
For a curses solution, I like bittorrent-curses from the
bittorrent-4.4.0-1.el5.rf package -- also from rpmforge.
But as Spiro pointed out, it's all a matter of personal preference.
