Ahh the old days, before the descent of the cursed WIMP
Linux brings back the command line but with multitasking and stability.
Call me weird but my favourite Linux features are quite simple; command
line completion, virtual consoles, file permissions and and REAL command
line. Any mistakes made are my fault not the pointing device. Simple,
clean, powerful, so many of them do not know what they are missing. The
command line is not to be feared but rather to be embraced, when was the
last time a text display gave serious problems.
