I fail to see why networking requires a command line. But hey, if you prefer to waste your time doing it the hard way, go right ahead...
You have just got to be shitting me?
Aside from the stuff n0c brought up, how about configuring routers for instance?
Hint: IOS doesn't come with a fancy GUI.
You're completely missing the point of my example. My example was to show how global copy and paste works on Windows, not to specifically point out copying from Word to Outlook. As long as programs adher to OLE standards you can copy and paste any kind of documents amongst any kind of programs without losing any formatting on them. And that includes non-MS programs.
Gee, sounds so useful, especially for my grandma.
But by all means, if that's useful to you, thats nice, me I prefer the many advantages Linux has over Windows since those are useful to me.
This is what you seem completely unable to understand, just cause you don't know much, if anything about Linux, and don't see the use in it, doesn't mean that applies to the whole world.
I assume you think UNIX on servers is a bad idea as well?
Not to mention SPARC/PA-RISC/POWER boxes are a waste compared to x86 servers?
I mean they can't play games, and the command line plays a vital role in using them, so they must suck, right?
