or you can compromise with an ultra minimalist GUI that runs on top of xorg, such as openbox/fluxbox and similar.

Archbang , which uses openbox, is a good example of a distribution to try in a VM if anyone wants to see an example in action.

It is , to the best of my knowledge, though I am not a big fan of arch. Excellent wiki however. If I were going to run openbox I would install Debian to server like setup and then manually replicate the general idea of crunchbang.
