Gnome is quite heavy, before you succumb to the void of choosing the best prompt format, try some other, lighter WMs. I like Fluxbox very much; XFCE is lighter than Gnome/KDE but still similar; i3 is also lightweight.
I guess there might be some light Firefox forks, or maybe even go back to iceweasel?

As for command line, check out:

• tmux
• zsh (it’s completion mechanisms are imo better than bash)
• mc
• how to define your shortcuts as functions inside every login shell, instead of using aliases which are easier but have limitations

Btw, slackware still maintains x32
And there’s also arch32
