Can confirm, was there in high school at the same time and had the same experience :-) I still use programming languages like AWK to this day (I even list it as a known language on my resume; someone commented on it once, it's always a +1 for the company if they do). Recently though I've been exposed to some stuff in the Windows world that makes me think that, sure, they evolved slower but they evolved in a really interesting direction and possibly pulled themselves out of the local maxima that is the Unix world. (I'm referring to PowerShell.) It's a little weird to me when devs don't immediately go to the command line, given that's just how I learned, but you've gotta recognize that it's not a flaw that they don't. Everyone just learned a little differently.
