This comment is hilarious. Apple switches from Classic Mac OS to OS X, the defining difference being that OS X has Unix underpinnings. Apple then goes from almost going out of business to being one of richest companies in the world (sometimes the richest). And this is supposed to be evidence that the command line isn't important?
