A quick question folks, does 9.10 Server have a gui or is it command line only?

server doesn't have a guide but If you wan to install a graphical desktop manager without some of the desktop addons like Evolution and OpenOffice, but continue to use the server flavor kernel use the following command
sudo aptitude install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop
