Dear Guha It is going on for too many mails: already OT now, as pointed out by Aswin Mansingka or Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay. Let me reply to one of these questions very quickly. Obviously Linux GUI is GUI too, but with a difference that it does not hide the OS and the Command Interpreter, that is, the deeper layers. As you can remember, it was a big point there in the lecture: this elaborate process of hiding. If you are interested we can have mails off the list.
