multi-gnome-terminal

I like the "multi-gnome-terminal". It supports "bonding" of tabs, which is very useful if you want to execute the same command on several machines, but it's also a good general-purpose terminal emulator, IMHO.

I agree. MGT also allows the window to be split into sub-terminals horizontaly and vertically, which can be incredibly useful.

...plus it allows you to use any X font for display, not just scalable outline fonts. Apart from allowing me to use the font that I've been using for years, this makes it way faster than gnome-terminal.
