    A badger? Hopefully not a Honey Badger, not worth the trouble for its corpse.

    15 years? I have been using Linux for 17 years. 15 years is counting from when v 1.0 came out, but there was Linux before that.

    still hoping for the day when you can easily find Linux distros that are as easy to use and set up as windows and mac os x.

    As in, no command line needed at any point.


    Now I love the command line and use vim and gcc on my mac when I could just use xcode, but most people aren't quite as geeky as I.

    @kzooguy: You don't have to use the command line to set up Ubuntu or any of its derivatives.


    I have yet to have a machine in which K/X/Ubuntu was unable to install drivers during the initial installation process. Yes, I use aptitude or apt-get to download application packages, but with the Synaptics Package Manager, you don't have to launch a terminal window at all to add applications.


    I'm pretty sure you will be able to take a machine, install K/X/Ubuntu and configure it to you liking without launching a terminal window once.

    @seizure: "You don't have to use the command line to set up Ubuntu or any of its derivatives." - This is incorrect.


    Running Ubuntu without using command line is theoretically possible, but deviate in the slightest from the path that was laid before you and it's command line city.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Johnny Depp, Charles Manson, Justin Long -- clearly Mr. Jobs is all things to all people, and clearly has nice chops to boot.
