Well, it's just that, that makes it excellent. The fact that you can open a terminal (or thirty) to get what you want done is all very well, but when you just want to sit and look at pretty interface applications, the option is there waiting for you.

I wouldn't say it's over-simplified, although it is very easy to use. As much as anything, they've made a fast and effortless interface.

It probably is pretty easy to use for most people, but a lot of people I know that do a lot with computers and programming that are used to things being decently complex, it's almost impossible to get anything done. Don't dis on the console either, I always have an xterm up just in case I need to do something

Oh, I am just the same. It's always open somewhere in the background.
