    Linux requires you to venture into the command line

    No it doesn’t. I choose to use the command line because it’s more efficient which is entirely different.

      I agree. If anyone looks at windows support you will find the command line as well. It is much easier to copy paste a specific command than to try and diagram a series of paths and clicks to get something done. Neither OS requires it, but support is much easier when you do.

        Double agreed. The amount of time I spent in a command prompt on Windows this week, you’d think I was working on a headless Linux server. XP

      Totally agree with this. The more you understand the terminal, the more you know how fast and efficient command line is (not for all activity, but many of them are easily done through command line) rather than through UI. But it takes time to understand, not in insant.
