I like Syncterm followed by Netrunner. However, its of note that Netrunner
supports iCE colors... might be worth stating, for some users. Since coming
back to BBSes in the recent past, Syncterm has just been so supported,
upgraded and available that its my top pick. 

Netrunner feels more 'cool' and more 'mystic'... but once you get Syncterm
compiled correctly, it works pretty great. Altho in my different linux builds
I've had issues with it only loading in curses mode (No SDL) and selecting
text doesn't always copy - and almost never pastes easily. :P 

Other than those two small issues (copying does work sometimes - its an
environment issue that I haven't figured out the cause of yet...) it is rock
solid.
