I assume that's because Unices come with a somewhat less
braindead shell than Windows, so noone cares a whole lot.
I can't possibly imagine how this would make a big difference.
Windows shell is crap compared to most (probably all) Unix shells and
everyone knows that. But I can't imagine how could a better shell help
in situations such as typing long repository URLs, reviewing and
diffing past revisions in a sane way, doing complex merges. Or even
the simple case when you're only going to commit some modified files
instead of all of them and want to review whatever you did to each of
those files while writing the revision comments.
We're talking about web developers, right? There are a bunch of
decent browser-based SQL tools.
The command line mysql client is decent. You can do anything using it.
The same goes for the browser-based SQL tools.
The real difference is how much time you'll take to accomplish a given task.

What about Strawberry Perl?
I've never really tried Strawberry Perl but from what I've heard it's
even easier when you're using it, since it already comes with gcc.
PS: I think this discussion is already way offtopic, so I think we
should end this thread here (or at least move it to the Catalyst
mailing list, where it'd be less offtopic).
