In each case, the better interface is determined not by objective analysis but by the user's priorities. I disagree. I believe you're saying that a more terminal focused interface is deemed better by some people's priorities and therefore could be said to give a good user experience whereas someone who doesn't value or want to touch the terminal would think Mac and Windows have better user experiences. But that's such a tiny variable in the overall user experience that I don't buy it though with my comment I wasn't specific enough and it did kinda sound like I was only calling out terminal vs terminal. I think Linux has a lot of room to improve as far as usability goes; I just don't think that the comment I originally replied to is in anyway accurate in that any mistakes from Microsoft could open the door for Linux.
