Weird, that was a selling point when BSD-based OSX came out. Maybe you don't want to use it, but Apple definitely pushed it for marketing.
- Someone 3y agoIn my recollection, the selling point was that it had a command line for those who wanted one (¿maybe just that it was a Unix, without explicitly mentioning the command line much?), not that you needed to use it.
- thefz 3y agoStill, a selling point.
- al_borland 3y agoA selling point is also that the average user will never need it. I’ve yet to setup a single Linux system without needing to jump into then command line day 1, that’s not a good thing. Having a command line is good, needing one for daily tasks is bad.
