terminals on top of each other

i use the terminal a lot in Linux and OS X. one thing i've noticed is that when you open a new terminal (in either one), it likes to put the new terminal on top of the old one, meaning you immediately move it so that you can see both terminals at once.

why don't they have a better offset system for terminal windows? when i open another terminal, make it so it is as far away from the first terminal as possible. that is where i'm going to end up moving it anyway.

annoying.
