I'm gradually starting a Win 2000 -> Linux migration, for general reasons and because I was impressed by a bisexual Linux LiveCD.

I'm not yet sure about what distribution I'll use, but I feel I should figure out that myself. Instead, I'm going to ask about keyboard controls.

I like the way I can do almost anything in the Windows GUI with the keyboard (don't laugh, Windows keyboard controls are pretty good).

Now, from what I've seen the graphical side of OSS programs tends to be quite lacking in keyboard controls - this could or could not be a consequence of windows conversions. This is why I'm wondering if anyone can recommend programs or even window managers and other stuff that do this stuff well before I start migrating for real. Please note that none of this discussion has anything to do with any kind of CLI.

So, what stuff is good friends with the keyboard?
