Anyway, the point of Terminal is that I'm not taking away from it that it is highly powerful, but the latter part of the sentence wherein you need to do make extensive use of it. I did enjoy my time with Terminal back when I was using Hardy & Gutsy (compiling applications setting up graphic resolutions, setting fonts etc. etc.) but IMAO command line is just too inefficient for a user. A power user is a different case all together.

Oh and the doctor and brain crap, keep that out, it's as much of a troll as linux itself.

@BGhose, you just said what I wanted to say, Yahoo is a messed up company. An arrogant leader of a "startup" can cause it's doom, if you know what I mean.

As far as companies running their backend on Unix is concerned, 1 should use what suits them best and what makes them efficient. But, saying that you know what if you switch to Unix you can avoid recession is laughable.

Besides, when it comes to desktops Windows still remains a much better option because of it's usability.

So peace, as you know I am not physically capable enough to take on Hiway & BGhose.

If not, read at http://www.linuxwins.com/ then surely you will get to know how much an insight at a macro level you have done so far.

One fact, that i love to quote to people like you,
"To mess up a Linux box, you need to work at it; to mess up your Windows box, you just need to work on it."

Walk out of cradle, buddy.
I would love if u scroll up and read that sentence again.

And as far as the ``shit hole called Terminal'' is concerned, it seems
you have either been living in a cave all this while or are in
complete denial. Let me re-iterate, you don't have to use the Terminal
to perform day-to-day tasks on a modern GNU/Linux system. And the
``shit hole called Terminal'' is more of a power-tool than a handicap;
but a non-technical luser like you would hardly understand that.

I also like the way how you called GNU/Linux a
``new/different/alien/useless/crap-filled/shitty platform''; in one
fell swoop you proved that Google, Yahoo!, Facebook, Twitter are all a
bunch of morons. I personally congratulate you on having a sub-100
IQ.

I doubt if you have ever tried writing any application besides using
them. I am sure you will understand the power of the same
``new/different/alien/useless/crap-filled/shitty platform'' then.

You can now get back to your favorite Windows box and
re-format/re-install/re-update the whole system. I know you get a lot
of kick out of it.

Secondly, if you're afraid of terminal, I doubt you'll be running your PC for a lopt of powerful tasks. Please refer to our previous posts in which we have tried to throw some light on the importance of Terminal vis-a-vis GUI. I do not intend to say that Terminals are for geeks but then, there is not harm mastering it, if you haven't already. Best wishes ahead!
