Which world did you come from? Windows? MacOS? It looks like that each
time you say such an absurd statement.

The terminal is _the_ killer feature of an UNIX like operating system.

All the rest are bonuses. We're merely at the point where the GUI
bonuses clearly start overcoming those (some may say they are the only
one) of Windows and MacOS.

At the same time, the other mainstream OS's are bringing the terminal
back in (Apple's already done, Microsoft is on the verge of doing it,
since DOS doesn't really count).
