Dear God, the Salt and Pepper shakers are -armed-.

The more that I read In the beginning...was the command line., I think 2 things.

1) I wish I'd read this while I was still a CS major. It might have made me suffer through the problems I was having until I really learned how to program well.

2) I think that I'm finally going to bite the bullet and try Linux, sooner than later.

I think after we get Lisa's PC fixed (again) I might well build a small box to put it on, with a nice Xwindows setup so I don't feel totally lost at the command line.
