"Imagine if you had to wait one second for your keyboard to respond to any key you type (and one second between keystrokes)"

I've had this experience, while traveling I had a really slow internet connection and had to do some work via ssh to fix a server, it was hell...

You go through that experience one time and you learn that being able to automate as much as possible with tools like capistrano and sprinkle for server setup is crucial (it also started me on the path to keep my /etc configuration files on git...)
