  • I've always struggled to understand why anyone would want to use a command line, in preference to a GUI. I can physically install a hard disk and have it mounted, formatted and shared etc within seconds using a GUI. It seems to me that at the command line, running somehting 'headless', you have to read an awful lot of information, just to understand what disk you need to install. And I'm a big Linux fan 🙂
