ratpoison is great. Get your shortcuts set up just the way you want,
and you'll never want to go back to using a mouse. I've been using
ratpoison with Xinerama (two monitors), for several months, and have
never been happier with a window manager.
ion is very good. I used it for a year or so, but I prefer the greater
screen real estate ratpoison makes available. Also, I found myself
using the mouse too much in ion.
But if you like to resize windows a lot, ion makes it easier than
ratpoison. I just run all my applications fullscreen, on either the
left monitor or the right monitor, so ratpoison makes more sense.
