Dunno, think so.
Why not search the repo and try stuff out?
Lots of cli apps will be accessible. Actually most.
Just some better than others.

No. Skype for linux is a qt app I believe.
Or its not gtk or something.
So its not even accessible with orca in a gui.

Come on. If you want this stuff you really need a gui.
Gnome isn't that big. With everything up and running maybe just over 1 gb.
or maybe 2 gb. Dunno exactly.

No!
None for a gui anyway.
If you want all this stuff with no gui linux probably isn't for you.
I actually am trying to get an audio game to run in wine with gnome...

Well no not exactly.
Debian etch and lenny I guess... Can be installed with no desktop.
And you can always remove gnome from ubuntu I guess. But dunno who would
bother.
You should probably get a gui as well even through startx so stuff like
spreadsheet and word processor work.
